System Specs

You really shoulden't be playing around the insides of any PSU unless your qualified to do so just a little while ago there was a rather big NEWS article about a teen taking apart his PSU and touched the wrong thing and killed himself. Even after powered down and unpluged there is capacitors in the PSU that hold a rather large charge (big enough to kill you instantly .3 milliamps across the heart) for a long time after unpluged. It dosen't happen often but it can happen with any PSU old or new cheap brand or top brand. I would junk the pretty much dead PSU and get a new one.
