Is the line power, from the electric company stable and
clean (no spikes, surges) ? Do you have any other
electrical problems? Is the computer on a circuit that is
isolated from heavy draw items such as motors (air
conditioners, washing machines) or do you see any
fluctuation in the lights?
Have you tried a "name brand" PSU from a company such as PC
Power & Cooling or Antec?

| Hi all,
| I have a P.C. that keeps blowing power supply's.
| It is P4 2.4, Gigabyte GA-8IG100MK Main Board in a
"whitebox" of
| unknown make.
| Low spec AGP video card
| 2 x Optical drives
| 1 x 80gig Seagate Barracuda
| The last power supply it blew was a Unicase 400W Silent
power supply.
|
|
| I has been plugged into a middle of the road surge
protector the whole
| time (which seems to fine.)
| This has all happened in the same house; however there
hasn't been any
| other power problems.
|
| I'm thinking maybe it's the case because the problems
happend when the
| unit is being switched o every time.
| Anyone else seen something like this?
| TIA
|
| Rob
