I had some free time and decided I’d try installing MythTV on an old PC that’s been sitting idle for a few months.
POP, POP, sizzle. As soon as I hit the power button, the magic smoke that powers all electronics was released.
So much for that idea. Now to rummage for a spare power supply.
[Update: 4/4/09] I picked up a cheapo Logisys 480W power supply for the repair. The box says “silent”. My ears say its louder than any power supply I’ve ever owned, and its going back.
