lol sorry i did mean PSU

Thanks guys. I got a 500 watt sun ups and it seem to be working fine.

do you think a 500 watt one would be enough?

intels site says that only ata-66 or ata-100. when i connected the wd(400) ata-100 the computer works. The maxtor ata-133 worked for 3 or 4 days and now it doesn't in that computer. The maxtor will in other computers.

never mind dumb question i will get a new ups though thanks guys for the help

i did some more research and found the the motherboard supports ata-100 and not the ata-133 i bought, but why would it work for a few days then stop? if i get a ultra ata-100 would that work?

it's from Just PC(USA).

there is the intel board like stated before, hd is a maxtor diamondmax plus 9 (80gig ata 133), and a Artex model no# bkm-52x16c combo drive. there is a stick of pc-400 512 mb samsung M368L6523CUS-CCC also. nothing else.

it's a atx-425power supply mb is a intelD865GBF. memory is all new and the and the mb sees it. i need a atx type power supply to run the mb. i can't just put any power supply to it.

anybody help? please!!!!!!

i'm pretty sure it is the power supply because the computer works with the other hard drive(wd400). the computer will not turn on when the power is hooked up with the maxtor hd. once i disconnect the power to the hard drive the computer will turn on. is it because i don't have enough power to...

the fans turn on for a second and then nothing. it's like a breaker trips when i turn it on. i then have to turn off the psu by the on/off switch in the back and turn it on again to get the computer to anything.

i have a new maxtor diamondmax plus 9 hd and the computer i put it in worked fine. I put xp home on it with no problems. 2 days later the computer won't boot even into bios. i tried the hd in other computers and they start fine. is this power supply not enough to run this hd? i put a wd400...

i got it. believe it or not i changed the ide cable and everything was fine. Thanks for the help.

i did run this data lifeguard tools cd that came with the drive. It went threw and formatted and said it was ready to use and to put the xp disk in to install.
