Yesterday I was playing with my PC when it shut off without any warning. I tried to power on, but it didn't worked... no image, no POST beeps, nothing.
It spent all night unpowered (I was thinking about overheating), but it didn't work the next morning.
I was thinking it could be an expansion card, so I've changed the graphic card (Nvidia 7900GS) with a borrowed nvidia 7600GT and it worked.
But, before I buy a new graphic card I've thinking about the power supply (it has 4 years or so)... how can I find if the problem is in the nvidia 7900 or the power supply?
My other power supplies are 450W or less, so I think they won't boot with that card... and I won't be able to dismantle my girlfriend PC without serious consequences.
I have traveled across the universe and through the years to find Her.
Sometimes going all the way is just a start...
