Hi Guys,
Can a PSU wear out? I got the side of my tower opened and I am trying to figure out why hd's will boot on one occasion, and not the next time. On boot up, the BIOS will ID all the drives installed everytime, but not boot into windows, Now while trying second or third time, it will. It seems that it will boot while I am moving the power wires to the drives around. I have tried all the other connectors on the boot HD, with the same results. How can I test the PSU? I have unplugged all other unneeded drives and fans with the same effect and results. Thanks in advance.
