Formatting a PSU borked computer, it's been tortured by a Diablo 550W Black Chrome PSU with lights on the inside and a red light up fan on the outside.
Tiger Direct, 20 bucks shipped.

I was never aware of how bad a shyt psu could ****** up a rig.
I am now PAINFULLY aware. (Although not as painfully aware as the kid who'll be paying the bill.)

This kid totally whacked two hdd's, a mobo and his floppy with this thing.
I fixed the floppy and one of the hdd's.
I sent him to exchanged the brand new 200 gb hdd he fvcked.
This has been the repair from hell.

All because he saved 60 bucks on a power supply.
 
And that's why I quit buying from Dell. Fried a computer with their cheap PSU. What a miserable experience. :frown:

I honest to God thought there was no such thing anymore but some guy called to buy some stuff today and now I can vouch that there's at least one person left.

Just wondering, how exactly does a bad PSU damage the rest of a computer?

By delivering intermittent and/or wrong voltages to precision parts that rely on consistant and constant voltage.
