power supply question

I went to boot up my system today and when I pressed the power switch all
the fans in the system started up for a couple of seconds then stopped and
nothing else happened. So I switched from the battery backup to the wall
outlet and tried again and then the fans wouldn't even spin (and when I
switched back to the battery back they are also still dead)... so I'm
assuming a dead power supply, but I still have a green light on my
motherboard... does this sound like a dead power supply to everyone else?
