Dear All,

Kind regards

Those machines are fairly useless. We see those through here all the time with failed PSUs and motherboards. If you think it's really worth it, just get yourself a standard ATX Power Supply, it's nothing special. Just a standard one.

Are you sure that it's your Power supply that's failed?

 

Hi Matt - thankyou for your time in replying. Have tested AC to powersupply and lead - works fine with an older system i happen to have lying around. What else do you think it could be if not the systems power supply ????

Kindest Regards

Richard

 

Matt - would you have a secondhand power supply lying around by any chance - I know the system is poor
as you clearly appreciate - so want to keep costs down if I can help it. No worries if you are unable to assist here

All the best

what he said.

Check the mobo hasn't got any busted capasitors (these are the little cylindrical thingabybobs) they can crack when knackered thus rendering the mobo dead.

 

Interesting !! - If the mobo wouldn't the fan still be turning over at the back of the unit ??????

Thanks for bearing with me

It could do, if the psu was completly dead then nothing would happen at all but if part of a mobo was dead then some parts may work whereas others wouldn't.

Have you tested the psu with a multimeter?

 

ok well if it worked then the mobo is the suspect
