I recently removed my 8500 power supply to replace the fan. It's still making a vibrating noise, I assume the fan vibration is setting up a harmonic beat. Or, is the power supply itself about to go kaput. Are 8500 power supplies available, or do you just hack up a PC power supply? BY > -- PCI-PowerMacs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
