Bad power switch? Happened to me... try unplugging the case's power switch from the motherboard and use the tip of a screwdriver to make a momentary connection on the header pins, see if it will start and run.

Wierd, can you try a different power supply? Got any computers you could borrow one from?

OK, now I am wondering if your fan has a fault. That would explain the burnt smell and the shutdowns. I am guessing you have the VOS32, it's this one? Try running it with only one fan or the other just to see if one fan is causing a short. I've shut my system down accidentally by shorting the 12V line to ground, so I know it could be the cause. Good luck, I'm off to bed here.
