So i was putting my computer back together in a new case i just got, i was doing the work in one room and got everything together and tested it out. Up and running, happy, happy.
Then i unhooked it and moved the tower into my computer room, plugged it in and there was the dreaded loud pop from the PSU and a spark out the back. It was a violent pop and of course the PSU is dead now.
I was wondering if anyone could tell me what they think could have caused this pop, i made no changes between my work station and my computer room.
also, clearly ill need a new psu, any recomendations? 4 sata drives, 1 ide, 1 dvd, a 7900gt, pentium D presler, 5 case fans.
thanks
