PSU not working?

dolphinsa87 · 03-13-2008, 12:54 PM

I am not sure if its my power supply or not but when I hook everything up nothing happens. The fans of my PS dont turn on. No LED's turn on and I dont hear anything kicking in. I can hear a small buzzing sound mabye power or something for like 1 - 2 seconds and thats it. I though it was my old power supply which came with the case so I took it to COMP USA and they said it was fine and tested it but I bought a new one anyway beacuse I needed more watts. So i changed it out and everything but still nothing. So I dont know if its me or not any advice would be helpful. thanks.

Hi dolphinsa87, try plugging the computer into a different wall outlet, if the power cord is not new try a new one, make sure the power select switch on the back of the power supply is on the correct setting (115 for 110v). If these things don't get results, take the power supply back as defective. List your system specs and we can recommend one that will power your computer. Mike
