Second Antec 430w power supply... The first one literally exploded on me about two months ago for reasons unknown. :frown: Great supply otherwise though, going to take it out of this current failure of a box and put it into my nifty new box that I'm getting parts for for Christmas.

Antec SmartPower 350W (SL350). I modded it with a 80mm Panaflo L1A fan, but I left the stock 92mm intake fan in. It runs a P4 2.6C, Asus P4P800-Deluxe, Kingston HyperX PC3700 1GB RAM, WD800JB, Maxtor 60GB, Samsung DVD-ROM, Hi-Val 52X CD-RW, and a 8MB ATI Rage3D PCI Video card (til i buy a new one).

What are your 5v/3.3/12v line readings?
Im suprised that you can keep stability with that sort of system and a 300W PSU.
