tennyson Posted January 14, 2011 Share Posted January 14, 2011 That is good news, mate. I would never recommend anybody to play around with power supplies. Whilst other areas within a PC are relatively safe (5 volt and 12 volt), inside the power supply lurks capacitors and circuitry carrying and retaining many thousands of volts and can quite literally blow one's arm off! Another point to consider is that the fuse has been replaced in many newer power supplies with fusible links, which makes changing them or soldering in new fuses a thing of the past. And lastly, you know you did the right thing timmo, as the power supply has a tamper sticker, which when broken (you will do this if you open the power supply) will void your warranty and you will be up for the 240 bucks, not the manufacturer.

timmo32 Posted January 14, 2011 Author Share Posted January 14, 2011 yep your right frank,i was very tempted to open the psu,but if its sealed and cant be serviced and if its under warranty,well sending the whole thing back from melbourne to sydney would be the best thing to do and they tested out other componts ,thanks to all the talented guys on this forum,im learning very quick about fsx and the computer thing many thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
