Yeah, I meant the power supply of the problem machine. Aemon Send a noteboard - 03/05/2011 08:10:04 PM
Glad the new one's working well, I was just wondering if, when you were having all those problems however long ago, you checked the power supply. Power supplies are often overlooked, yet are one of the surest causes for multi-component failure. Apparently, computer parts like to get the proper amount of electricity.

#1 reason to build your own: no pre-loaded bloatware. *NM* - 03/05/2011 04:52:45 PM 408 Views
It's a plus, but I'm not sure about #1. - 03/05/2011 05:26:29 PM 753 Views
