How good it is to find TR! Having never gone further than installing a DVDRW drive some years ago I recently tried to do the same in my 3 yr old machine but instead the whole system just died. After reading so many similar stories and replies I summoned up the courage and took everything out of the case and then used a PSU from an old machine to ascertain that it was the PSU that had stopped working. I have reinstalled most items and it still fires up on the old PSU but I need to buy a new one, around 400W should be fine.
Are there any brands to look out for or to avoid and, apart from getting the right connections any other considerations.
One other question, if you don’t mind. The power/reset button switches the computer on but does not switch it off as it did before, no matter how long I hold it in. Is there something I may have altered inadvertently.
Thanks for any comments that you may have.
