Had a friend drop off his comp for me to look at. He said it was working and he heard a pop and smelled something like it was burning (never a good sign). First thing I noticed was alot of dust in the case.. and a definately burned out powersupply.
So I replaced the powersupply. The motherboard is an ASUS A7V266-EAA.
When I power up the new p/s the power light on the m/b lights up that its getting power. The cpu and northbridge fans spin for about 1/2 spin then nothing.
I cleared the cmos jumper by the battery in case there was a halt on problem in the bios.
Any other suggestions or should i start looking for another m/b?
And if so what would the best replacement be reasonably?
