Hi
maybe the problem is far more simple it's farily easy to check.
Ok Caps might get old but they are also fairly senestive to temp/humidty

with time this aggreavates suggest putting a 470 �fd on the 5v and a 1000
�fd on the 12v see what happens. The problem is that cheap TW psu's dont
often rate
whats marked on them ?? what is the HW config exactly ??
