    Voltage variations = dying PSU?

    OK... dared to turn it on for a while today to check the voltage levels. Sandra gave results on the +12 line ranging from 9.5 to above 12. That seems like a lot of variation to me, but I'm not sure. Those results were given within a minute or two of one another, while the computer was just...

    Voltage variations = dying PSU?

    Weird... :confused: I pulled out the following: SB Live! 5.1 MP3+ Modem IDE Card CD-RW DVD Then... I booted it up no problem. Could I be sucking too much power out of my 320w CWT PSU? Anyway I can test my PSU output?

    Voltage variations = dying PSU?

    No luck with clearing the CMOS. :confused: I don't have another PSU that I can throw in there. So, I don't really have any means of testing it, unless I just unplug everything else. I guess it could be the Mobo. I do have 2-yr warranty on that. So, I could return it and see it that fixes...

    Voltage variations = dying PSU?

    ok... checked both sticks at home. They seem to work fine. I was able to use each of them. Booted all the way to windows without a problem. If anyone has a suggestion, plesae let me know. I'm going to try to clear the CMOS tomorrow. After that I'm not too sure.

    Voltage variations = dying PSU?

    Tried changing the FSB. CPU checked in at a lower speed (as expected) still no recognition of the RAM. Any more suggestions? If not, I will try it out on another computer tonight.

    Voltage variations = dying PSU?

    Thanks for the suggestions... Fern - Although the screen says to hit 'ESC' to skip the test, hitting 'ESC' does nothing. So, it seems as though I can't get past this step. Dave - I ahve no voltage adjustment on this board. Frankly, I don't really want to either. Also, I'm not sure what...

    Installing a stereo jack

    One suggestion would be to go over to Radio Shack or similar electronics store where you can buy a headphone jack. This is probably better than reusing an old one, as the contacts can become dirty over time. I can't say I've ever seen a 5-lead jack. The main thing is just matching the leads...

    Need help with PIII MB.... PLEASE!!!

    Not successful. Actually, it doesn't have a jumper to clear the CMOS. Anyway, I think I'm just gonna give it up for lost and replace it with a Duron/K7S5A.

    Arggghhh! What to do now with unknown non-working part?

    This might be the over-obvious suggestion... But, does the CPU fan have 3 wires? If not, the MB might be shutting down automatically since it is not reading any speed from the fan sensor (3rd) wire. If this is the problem, I know there is a way to turn the auto-shutoff off for other Soyo...

    Recently, my computer spontaneously rebooted while I was writing a paper. Fortunately, I didn't really lose anything. But, then it happened a couple of days later while I was scanning a document. Any ideas what could have caused this? The way I figure, it could be something with the PSU, MB...

    Painting a bezel...

    A while ago, I think someone posted a mod that used the 5.25" plates from an empty slot and attached them to the CD tray with silicone glue. This allowed one to paint the plate (much easier) and gave a nice clean look. But, I can't seem to find it now. Anyone know the link? Thanks... :)...

    Any Sprint PCS phone deal for Current Customer ?

    I just called *2. Then when you get "Claire", the helpful electronic directory service, just say cancellation. I've done this a number of times. When the CSR's answer, they don't say, "Sprint Cancellation Department. How can I assist you?" They just treat you like anyone else. But, it...

    So....how hard is it to replace a PS fan???

    One thing I did that was helpful... My fan wires were soldered directly to the board in the PSU. So, I cut the wires and stripped about 1/5" of insulation. Then i just twisted the wires and gently slid them into the connector on the fan. In my case, I used one of those weird two pin...

    Black Case with Front USB and 320W PS $42 + shipping

    I have this case. I like it. It's pretty nice. I think it's also available from PCLink2000 for $39... Here. My only complaint is that it is a bit short in the depth, especially if you have a larger MB like an ECS K7S5A. It starts to get tight with the cables to the drives and all.
