Re: Psu failure taking out CRT ?

I'd call it common coincidence since I've seen that all to often on Emachines.

E-Machines are notorious for PSU failures which take down the
mothernoard.
I have one here where the PSU crashed and rendered the MoBo dead.
Inside the PSU there was a capacitor that completely desoldered
itself.
I replaced the PSU, MoBo, CPU and Ram just to find out that the CRT
was dead also.
What I am not certain of is if this is common or coincidence as far as
the CRT goes.
