Hi,

My younger sister today stupidly messing around with the pc at the back, switched the red VAC switch from 115 to 230 as u can imagine BANG. Just want to know if theyre is another way of solving the problem first before buying a new PSU (such as a fuse) and if so where. Also anyone think shes damaged the motherboard, cpu or hard disc etc, cas it was a big bang, and one last thing to test a new psu, im gonna take the one outta my pc and put it in that one but the only problem is the case of the blown one is AT whereas mine is ATX, so will it still fit?

cheers guys.
