My OEM power supply started smelling like burning a few days ago. It didn't go out and still works, it just smells bad.
I purchased a new APower 480-Watt ATX power supply. It's got the same wattage and stats as the one OEM that lasted for 13 months.
The everything is running, except my NEC monitor stays in power save mode. I thought for a second I fried the GPU, but I hooked up my still-working old power supply and the monitor operated like normal.
I hooked up an old Dell monitor to the new power supply, and it also stayed in power save mode.
This has stumped me and everyone I've talked to.
Is this a faulty power supply or is there something I'm not doing?
