A problem with your PSU? A short circuit of some kind?

Yes, Power Supply Unit. Could be, not saying it definitley is.

Make sure all plugs are securely attached inside your PC.
Has it only done this once?

That makes me think it's definitley your PSU. It's probably not powerful enough for your system.
