Okay, I'll be that guy... -don't- take apart the power supply. Even when turned off it can kill you. No, I'm not kidding. If you're not accustomed to dealing with power and power supplies, don't mess with it. All you need to do to determine if it is the PS is disconnect the connectors going to the mobo. Turn it on. With a voltmeter set to DC 25v or 50v, place the black lead on something grounded, and probe the different pins of the mobo power connector with the red lead. If you still see the wacky values, there is your problem. If not, well, then I'm at a loss. I personally think lm_sensors is correct. Especially considering the HW failures you've described.
