Lou, I was wondering have you tried using a different outlet? I don't know if it is possible but if the unit didn't act this way before, I thought that somehow, the ground has been removed (destroyed?). You may also try it at another home/location for the same reasons as stated above.

It hardly seems likely that lightning could have done it. Any other way to proceed than to get a new powersupply (old computer, maybe not worth the effort). <snip> Do you want to signoff PCBUILD or just change to Digest mode - visit our web site: http://freepctech.com/pcbuild.shtml
