Default Re: PSA: Protect your surge!

SamIAm,

1) Are you using the same brand and model of power supply in the replacement? If not, it's possible that your new one is underpowered.

2) Are you using a video card that requires an external 6-pin 12V connection? If so, it's also possible that the video card is bogus and is pulling down the 4-pin 12V rail for your mobo. I'd try running it with a different video card or use onboard video if possible before taking everything apart.
