on/off switch

Whilst defragmenting [ not that I can see that that is to blame] my desktop PC froze.Couldn't get into task manager or anything else. I tried to turn it off with the off switch - that was immoveable. Had to disconnect the power supply to turn off the PC.
The on/off switch remains immoveable - it's as though it's jammed solid.My initial thought was that it's a simple mechanical failure of the switch but why did the PC freeze beforehand? Presumably there's some connection between that and the non working switch.
Anyone any thoughts?
