Last night I suffered an odd psu failure. I do so hate when old stuff
dies; even though I expect it.
The pc would turn on, spin up the HD, complete POST, and continue (I
assume). But I had no mouse, kbd, or video. Suspected severe psu sag or
some huge m/b failure (asus cubx)! Swapped the psu out and the pc is
fine again.
The old psu was the very first PCP&C psu I ever bought back in 1998.
This old psu has been run 24/7 since install. It was days shy of its'
11th complete year! I consider this good service for its' $200 cost back
in 1998. It is a Turbo-Cool 300 ATX. I am doing an autopsy ATM....... :)
The fan still works!
Best,
Duncan
