One line solution: Get yourself a new power supply, a good one.
Details:
Thanks to Subodh who helped me fix this. So, took my rig to his place. He looked at it and disconnected the existing power supply and replaced a new one. Everything worked like a miracle. Of course, we had to set a few other things right in the rig. But the culprit for the CR12J2 was just the power supply. If you encounter it, I would strongly suggest changing the power supply.
And, do let me know if that works for you.

Hi.
Never been to your blog before, but thought I'd stop by and tell you that I had the same problem with my computer.
My computer locked up, and I pressed and held my power button to turn off my computer. Afterward, when I pressed the power button, the fans inside the case would spin for a split second before turning off.
I figured it was the power supply, but I wasn't sure.
I googled the LED light that stayed lit up, the one in the title of your post, and your site is one that I found.
Ultimately, it was the power supply as I thought, but I'm glad I found your site so I could be less annoyed by the situation. I wasn't sure whether it was the power supply or the motherboard at first, so after finding your blog, I felt a little better.
Anyway, just wanted to respond here since your site helped me. Also, I figure if someone else has the same problem, seeing your post and my comment may set their mind at ease, as replacing a power supply is cheap and very easy, compared to just about anything else in a computer.
