Two things: 1) Make sure your PRAM battery has a charge, or just replace it with a new one (Rayovac 840 or equivalent). The PM 4400/7220/StarMax machines have a flaw in that if the PRAM battery is low or dead, the machine will not start, leading most people to suspect a bad PS. 2) There is a StarMax list where you are quite welcome as your computer is basically the same as the StarMax machines, (same MB, different PCI riser/case). If your PS is truly dead, someone there will definitely have info on where to acquire a new one.
