   It is already almost a certainty that the issue is in the power-supply. All   
   that rubber spoon will tell you is that the issue is in the power-supply. At   
   which point, you will need to troubleshoot at the component level.   
      
   Each time you apply power to what amounts to a dead-short, you may be damaging   
   other components downline. When the second fuse blows, *STOP THERE*.  Or the   
   first, if there is any sort of associated symptoms such as heat, smoke, noise   
   or a vaporized fuse.
