K7T turbo 2 power supply HELP!!!!!!!!!!

Well to start I felt like changing My Computer case to a Quiter one. soo they gave me a new Power supply with it. I hooked everything up perfect. and when I went to turn it on NOTHING happens I rechecked anchecked again. then I notices the voltage on the new power supply was 5V and my old one was 3.3 Volts on the DC out put. did I ruin My mother board or anything else? please let me know I also tried to use the old power supply and nothing ------no Power. PLEASE HELP.

The only diffence I see in the listed voltages, is the addition of the +5vsb, which is the "standby" voltage. It was likely present on the old PSU, just not listed.
As previously mentioned, recheck the power switch connection, and reset switch.
Also, look to insure there are no unused metal standoffs left behing the board, there should only be the 6 that are normally used to secure the board. Any extras can cause a short.
Just because the case is new, does not mean the power switch is good.
Also check the main power lead for a secure connection.
Might sound crazy, but does the new PSU have the power switch on the back? Those can be partly engaged, check to insure it is fully turned on.
I suspect the connections for the power switch are not correct, as you stated the old PSU does nothing as well.

Power Supply Help for 466mhz G4 - where can i get a good deal.

I need to find a replacement for the power supply in the machine. It is an original 466mhz g4, agp graphics. The power supply says 126w max and had AC BEL on it.
Can anyone help me out in finding a cheap place to get a power supply that fits this machine perfectly? Looking for a reputable dealer (obviously).
Thanx in advance.

Hi Nelson,
You're machine is a Digital Audio (the only G4 to have shipped with 466MHz processors), and the PSU is 338W - which should be adequate for most things. Why do you need a new power supply?
If you need a new one, it won't be cheap. You can try this place:

990FXA-GD65 Power Supply Help

Hi there, I am currently looking to build a new computer, though I am trying to make sure before ordering the parts that my power supply will work.
I know that the power supplies listed under the motherboards tested section on it's information page is probably the best way to confirm, though I was curious if someone may be able to give me a hand as I would not like to buy a new power supply if the one I have is actually sufficient. I have done some online calculations to see if the wattage is enough, and it has come back with positive results, though I am not sure if the ampage will be enough for what I am wanting to run.
Here is a list of the current parts that I am looking to run in the new system:
MSI 990FXA-GD65
MSI Nvidia Geforce 9800G2 1gb 800 MHz
Seagate Barracuda 7200.12 ST3500418AS 500gb HDD
Kingston KVR1333D3N9K2/8G 8gb Ram
The power supply that I am looking to use is the TR2 RX-850 ATX 12V 2.2 14cm Fan.
+3.3v/30A
+5v/28A
+12v/18A
-12v/0.8A
+5vsb/3A
the +3.3v and +5v have a combined max wattage of 180W
the +12V's have a combined max wattage of 720W
the -12v has a combined max wattage of 9.6W
the 5vsb has a combined max wattage of 15W
I am looking to buy the parts for the computer in a bundle, and this would be some helpful information to help with my purchase. I am trying to stick MSI for as much as I can, though unfortunately there are no MSI power supplies! If anyone has knowledge on the basis of my request, or just general knowledge to share about choosing a power supply, I am always open to hearing more and expanding my personal knowledge of computers.
Anyways, thanks for reading everyone, I look forward to your responses!

Thank you for the quick reply, I appreciate the fast response.
Out of curiosity, would a second MSI nvidia Geforce 9800 G2 1gb card be something that would add too much strain for the power supply? In the future I would like to pop in a second card, though I don't want to burn anything out. Also, are power supplies generally universally equal for their ability to hook into a board, or do some board require different cords and such?

+ a Floppy Drive
I will be looking to do a lot of high end games on this machine and I am looking for a power supply to suit my needs. So far I am looking at a COOLMAX 450W SWITCHING POWER SUPPLY (model CT-450) vs. the Enermax Whisper 431W Power Supply (model EG465P-VE)
The thing is that your Enermax power supply is going to cost me a bit more than the Coolmax power supply. However, I am willing to pay the extra cast IF its needed, but ONLY if its needed. So what do you guys think. Can anyone here give me an opinion as to which power supply is better suited for my needs
Also, if you think that none of these power supplies are good for me and I should go in a whole new directions completely... let me know what power supply you think I should go with instead, thnx

Dell Dimesnion 4600 Power Supply Help

I have an older Dell Dimension 4600 purchased from Best Buy. The power supply cord for the motherboard (20 pin) has the pin reversal where wires are in the opposite direction than usual. Is there to use an adapter or some other method to convert this connection to fit into a standard 20 pin connector?

so you are saying.......................... you ordered a dell computer, and inside the dell computer, the power pins do not match their motherboard?
did you swap out the power supply and use your own or something?

Power supply help needed

I build and repair computers and am fairly new to mac. I love not having the BSOD anymore.
I know you can use the ALS power supply on the G5 20" iMac that doesn't use it (all you do is remove the ALS sensor portion) then you should be able to use any of these p/n's for a replacement, right?
AP14P46, 614-0398, 614-0366, 614-0326, 661-3625, 661-3289, AP13PC97, 614-0279, DPS-180SB A, 614-0334, 661-3350 661-3289 614-0353 614-0296 614-0297
I have to repair several spares i.e. replacing the caps that are bad and am wondering what they will fit into. I know that you can't use a 17" iMac G5 PS in a 20" but you can use the 20" PS in the 17" but these are all for 20" iMac G5's
I am just curious if the above statement is true.

I know that putting a 17 into a 20 won't work because of the power requirements. However the 20 will work in a 17. The main issue that I am wondering is, if any of the model numbers listed above for the 20" will work in other 20" models? I also know that the ALS version will work that is why I put those model numbers into the mix because all you have to do to put a 20 ALS PS into a non-ALS 20 is remove the ALS portion on that particular PS. So I still need to know about the models numbers listed above, which ones will work and which ones will not? I have already talked via email with Jim and he is not sure. What I would like to do is get all of the model numbered power supplies and test connections / voltages on each one individually and that would answer all of the questions about which one will work in what. This is a real endeavor for me as I need to repair a few iMac G5's that have the bad cap issue. This has been a long standing problem ever since Apple ended their extended warranty repairs.
I might have one for you but I must repair it first. I am waiting for my DigiKey parts to arrive.
Since terms are different everywhere, is the "switchmode chip", you are talking about, the green tantalum cap on top of the smaller transformer taped to it with yellow tape?
I buy non-working iMacs or iMac PS's and repair them. And any other macs for that matter.

Power supply fan dead - help? (400mhz AGP G4)

Hello!
Unfortunately, my PowerMac G4, a 400mhz, AGP Sawtooth model, has a dead fan.
Over the last few weeks, I've noticed that my G4 has been running quite hot. I figured it was due to the hot dorm room that it's being used in. Then, I noticed that when it booted up, it would occasionally make a vibrating, or rattling noise - I figured the fan was wobbling. Since air was comming out of the fan opening at the top, I didn't worry about it.
Today, I used the "Temperature Monitor" widget to check the temperature of my SMART Hard drive (the G4 itself is not sensed). It was 133 degrees!!! This is the bay on the back-right, just under the CPU fan. I looked at the fan again - not much airflow. I pulled out a flashlight and pointed it in, and the Fan that's inside the power supply unit is dead.
So, how can I fix it? It's far far too hot, so it's not usable until I can cool it off. The first idea I had was to take a particularly powerful desk fan, and make a paper "tube" that connects both to the G4 and back of the fan - so it'll pull the hot air out. Needless to say, this is not a good log-term plan as it's easy to fall apart and will have leaks, but it works for now. I realize you can buy power supplies, but for ~$100, it's far too much for the old G4.
Second idea: The fan is inside the "non-user servicable" power supply, but it's also next to the back of the G4 - right inside what appears to be a panel that holds the power supply in. At the very least, I'd like to make sure that the cable is attached and not loose, but I have to open the back. Is that possible or safe? If so, can I replace the fan?
My third idea was to attach an extra fan to the inside of the G4, on the outside of the power supply - pushing in. Unfortunately, the IDE cable from the DVD drive is in the way, and there's not much room for a fan. Plus, there's no fan power supply. Is it possible to convert an ATA power plug (there are 7!) to a fan-power supply? I'd require a small circuit and a lot of resistors, obviously! If so, what would I need to do to convert it?
Thanks a bunch,
-Dan
15" 1.67 Powerbook G4 (Jan 2005), 400 mhz AGP Sawtooth G4 Mac OS X (10.4.8) 4G Clickwheel and 5G Vid iPods, 2G iPod shuffle

Thanks!
Interesting, this "Piggy back power adapter" will allow me to plug the fan into one of the ATA/IDE cables? Or do you mean the extra port on the power supply? (it has one plug for the outlet>G4, then another to support something like a monitor or similar) The G4 has a DVD burner, but no ZIP drive, so this is quite do-able if it uses the ATA power.
When you say "lower rear", do you mean at the bottom? Below the power supply, to the right of the PCI slots? If so, this is the inflow for the CPU fan! I can understand mounting it outside the current outflow-vent for the dead power supply fan, although I'm not sure the best way to proceed with attaching the fan.
Another question: what tools and supplies will I need? I may need to remove the plastic cover on the back of the G4 - the one that is outside the power supply - as there's a gap between the gray plastic and metal chassis that lets air from outside the machine come in. The screws for this cover use a funky, hexagonal screwdriver. If I need to take this cover off, what kind of screwdriver will I need? Also, should the fan not include screws/etc, what's the best method to attach it? Glue?
Secondly, to cut a hole in the G4, will I need some variety of drill? I don't have one, so i'll have to borrow one... Since there's nothing in the ZIP slot, I can run a cable out through here (assuming it's long enough), and make a new bezel to keep the airflow inside intact.
Ah! One other (somewhat related) question: my USB 2 card includes a power adapter, for use when several un-powered devices (flash drives) are attached. It works just fine with a flash drive and a small media reader, but it's slow to sense the drives - I think it's low on power. Unfortunately, this power plug uses the same variety of plug as the floppy disk drives found on many win-boxes - of which the G4 possesses none. Is there an adapter/cable for this purpose?
Thanks, this is a HUGE help, I appreciate it.

Help with using itunes with 4s library after i upgraded to iPhone 5 and computer power supply went

long story hopefully an easy fix....
on wensday my power supply went and had to ship computer across country to Puget Computer Systems as we weren't sure if it was power supply or mobo...luckily it was power supply.
i daily backed up iphone 4s with itunes (10.7) as i do all music manually, playlists, etc. have like 3,000 plus songs, videos, audiobooks, mail aaccts and about 48 apps.
so next day (sept 19th) apple comes out with iOS 6 which i update my 4s to with no problem. I wanted a day to play with it to learn my way around.
next day i wait in line for 8 hours overnite and was #2 in line at apple store for my ATT 32gb white iPhone 5. while at apple store I get my icloud backup which gets all paid music,apps, etc since itunes version 10.3 (i always did both backups so as not to lose my contacts more than anything.
I have other paid stuff that is in library on computer along with audiobooks and about 2700 more songs.
my icloud backup put the playlists on iPhone but not most of the music for them as lots were ripped from my cd's.as i double them up making a copy on iPhone and a copy on itunes.
So I have been using iPhone 5 with no problems just don't have all of itunes library on it. My computer is coming back this week how do I plug in iPhone 5 via USB (which will be seen as new phone even though it has same name) and use my existing iTunes 10.7 library which the backups in iTunes still has iOS 5.1.1 on it?
There must be an easy way of doing it as i don't want to wipe off iphone 5 again as i don't see any purpose my library is all organized perfectly. I know my way around windows 7 pro 64 bit pretty well just don't know what itunes is going to say once it sees "joe's iPhone" again and installs the usb drivers and icon for it. what will it ask in regards to library and how do i use it with previous iOS on it?
Thank you very much for the help as I am going to need it.
yes i broke the cardinal rule of cross posting and apoligize for it just amazed i couldn't find answer via google nor any apple store genius knew it either.

Hi All,
Any help?
No one has any answers here amoungst all this apple knowledge?
Thank you

Need help with power supply & graphics card upgrades

I have a HP Pavilion p6320y that I bought 8 months ago. AMD Phenom II x4820 Quad Core processor. I play WoW and since the last big patch, have been suffering with low fps. I updated drivers and followed all the advice given to me by Blizz and finally figured out that my Nvidia GeForce 9100 (integrated graphics) isn't good enough anymore.
I checked my computer and discovered that I have a 300w power supply (12V) and read on another post here that something stronger than 300w is needed to run a decent graphics card.
Now for my questions:
How much of a power supply can I upgrade to without hurting my computer, but will be enough to run a good card?
What would be a good graphics card for this computer?
I've been looking at the Nvidia GeForce GTX 460 1GB GDDR5 PCI Express graphics card and wonder if that will work on my computer. Most of the nicer cards seem to be the PCI Express and I'm not sure if that will work.
Any advice will be most helpful. I have some experience with the inner workings of my PC and would like to fix this myself instead of running to the closest computer shop and paying someone else to. Thanks!
This question was solved.
View Solution.

Well, you are starting out from a fairly low baseline with the integrated graphics. It will not cost much to have a substantial increase if all you want to do is run WoW without error messages. Yes, the 300w power supply is an issue and rules out any card that will require its own power (i.e. needs its own power cord like a hard drive) but there are several mid-grade cards that can run off bus power alone (i.e. just from the pci-e slot itself). Just taking a quick look at newegg.com I see the following:
GeForce 9400 under $50
Radeon HD 4650 under $50
GeForce 9500GT a little over $50
Any of these should get you where you want to be and not require a PS upgrade. The slot you have available is a PCI Express x16 slot so don't look at AGP cards; they will not work. If you want to install the card you mention you need to get a better PSU.

Need Help with power supply reccomendations for my graphics card

hi
i have a MSI GeForce GTX 780 Graphics card... i built my own system, i also got a rosewill rx750 power supply in it which i think is causing me problems, the computer works great until i get into games like titan fall and try and get into a game then it restarts the computer on its own.. has done this with a few games, but it works fine when surfing the net and so forth, i have read its to do with the power supply being week and also read my chosen power supply isnt that good... anyone got any recommendations for me that i should look at or am i looking in the wrong direction with whats wrong with my pc... any help would be great thanks

yes the PSU is the most important choice out there and corsair and seasonic are the best out there! (never buy cheap PSU's as like abvolt said a cheap one can easily kill your more expensive parts)
Cheap PSU = made of the most cheap parts they could get "think cheap shanghai parts are used that may be of any quality good or awful as its just what they could get for the lowest price" (ever bought anything that was super cheap they break very easily)
Quality PSU = the use of good quality well made parts and will have very good testing done on them to make sure they are stable and pass very tight regulations and conform to specs for 10-30 different factors each.
a cheap low quality PSU I class as a paper weight as it will never go near a computer (maybe i would use one as a basic bench PSU for things i do not care if they die or just for testing a fan or something that rubbish dirty power is not really a major problem but silicon is not tolerant to dirty power and will kill parts)

Help I think my power supply is going bad! Where can I buy parts?

I am getting random reboots and it doesn't seem to be the OS... My first guess is the power supply but I can't seem to find one to buy... Does anyone know where I can buy one at? Is there a good place for parts for the MEGA 180?
Thanks

you need to post more information about the problem you're having, before we start pointing the finger at the PSU, which is the one part that is difficult to obtain now
>> Getting help with random restarts and blue-screens <<
Post more info on the hardware in your Mega PC, refer to >> Moan Guide <<
Download Speedfan and use it to measure CPU temps both at idle and under load and post them here. >> How to use Speedfan <<
Test your memory using >> Memtest86 <<
The thing is that windows never leaves an error... I get nothing in the event viewer except windows was shutdown error no other errors are listed so I don't think it's windows... I ran a CPU Burn in test for over 24 hours and never had a problem so I don't think it's heat either... And the reboots are quite random I will go two weeks without one and then get them two and three times a day... To me the power supply seems to be the easiest answer but since there hard to get I guess it's not so easy to check eh...
I have done the fan mod (Turning it so it sucks in cool air) and I have a slot fan dumping tons of air out the back so I don't think it's a heat problem... I started to have the problem running Windows XP SP2 so I did a complete reload from scratch to Windows Vista (I know not completely supported but it works fine) and am still having the same problem... I have a Haugpauge 150 pci card, Haugpauge USB2, A usbuirt pluged into usb and thats about it... 2 gigs of ram 2x1gig sticks from Crucial, yes I have already run a memory check and it passed...
Is there not anywhere to get a power supply? Or is there another model that fits the mega 180 case?

Help! I need to upgrade my Dell Optiplex GX260 (tower) power supply!

Hi,
I plan on taking a trip to Best Buy today to purchase a video card and power supply for my Dell Optiplex GX260 (tower). I am looking to get at least a 500W power supply. Can you tell me the BEST power supply that will work/fit that Best Buy sells? Thanks very much.

I see that you posted back in March of 2009 so I hope that you haven't already fried a motherboard or PSU while learning the hardway, as I feel that I almost did. We have a Dell GX260 that my daughter wants to play some games on but I found out that the Graphic Card (ATI Radeon 7500 series) was not good enough for the games that she wants to play so I decided to upgrade the graphic card, unfortunately I found out that a lot of newer cards have PCI-Express connectors and not the PCI I need. As well, I found out that most of the PCI cards above what I have need more than the 250Watt power supply that I have. So I thought, why not just upgrade my my PSU and then I found out that Dell actually rewires their PSU differently than the industry standard ATX connectors but I see a lot of post and recommendations from people that say that you can use any store bought PSU to upgrade your Optiplex GX260 but BEWARE that if you bought your system after late 1998 then you have a Dell system that has their own proprietary wiring configuaration and even though you can buy a standard ATX PSU at bestbuy and it will seem to fit properly, it will either fry your new PSU or worse yet, it will fry your motherboard as well. In fact, I went to bestbuy three days ago and bought a graphic card and the salesman told me that if my PSU was not at least 300Watt, which is what the card required, that I can come back and buy a standard PSU from them and that would fix the problem. The salesman even knew that I had a Dell System so I wonder if BestBuy would be willing to replace my motherboard if I had fried it based on what the bestbuy salesman told me to do???? Anyway, read this link http://www.informit.com/articles/article.aspx?p=339053 and see what you think!! I am glad I stumbled across the information and plan on upgrading my PSU with a compatible Dell PSU or look for a Dell Converter (if there is such a cable) or just replace both my PSU and Motherboard as directed. I also think I might actually build my next PC from scratch with all industry standard parts, as I was very ignorant up until now that Dell was doing this to their products and I have 3 of their systems in my house....but no more!!! I did find a Dell compatible PSU 500 Watt on PCPower.com but it comes with SATA drive connectors and my Optiplex GX260 has IDE connectors so I don't know if I can get a SATA to IDE conversion or not but as you can see I am still researching my options. I might actually find it will be cheaper to just buy a new system or build the one of my dreams!!
I know I wrote a lot but I hope that this information is helpful to someone else out there who is in the same boat as me.

I need help to replace my power supply for the hp pavilion elite m9510f

This computer has given me many problems since I bought it in '09. From graphic card fan issues, a hard drive crash, and now the power supply has failed.
I did the blow dryer trick but it still ends up breaking a week later. I want to know what new power supply should I buy. One that will be able to fit in the hp pavilion elite m9510f and is an upgrade to the 350w that it has. Maybe somthing under 60-70 dollars if possible. Thanks for any help.

It appears to be a normal case and motherboard. A normal ATX supply should work: http://www.newegg.com/Product/ProductList.aspx?Submit=ENE&N=50001333&IsNodeId=1&Description=Computer...
Just an example of what is availble, but most any should work as long the physical dimensions match the one installed now.
