Gonna be out of the game for awhile
« on: January 05, 2010, 09:41:36 AM »
Turned system on this morning, and my Power supply decided to lose a cap. Sounded like an M80, and scared the hell out of the cat. Bummer.

Cheers

As long as it did not fry anything.... your looking at less than 30 minute changeout.

Yep.  As long as everything else is intact, it is a relatively quick and easy fix.  Lightning took my power supply last year, and luckily nothing else was fried.  Took me around a half hour as Shuffler said.

Amazing you could actually recruit that much suck into one squad.
