Help, anyone. I dont know what to do anymore. I recently built my own computer to sell. It had a 430W PSU in it. I brought a wireless internet adapter for it and a few cooling fans. I switched it on, ran normaly for about 20 seconds and smoke came pouring out the PSU. I unpluged it immedantly after that.<\/p>\n
I brought a new PSU 500W (dont know why i didnt go higher) but i did, when i finnished installing it, it had problems turning on and stuff. When it did come on, it made a poping noice and again smoke poured out. After that i was real angry.<\/p>\n
Third time buying, and this time a 1200W PSU, I thought i couldnt go wrong with this one. When i installed it, it was running fine, not a problem at all. Gave it a week and still was running good, then one afternoon when i was about to pack it up in the box, thought i might give it one more test. I switched it on, but when i plugged in the VGA cable while the computer was running it just turned off. Turned it on again and AGAIN the smoke came pouring through,
\nalso killing my motherboard my CPU and wireless adapter.<\/p>\n
After a long strike of anger i decided to give up building computers forever. But why did this happen? please i need to know why. If anyone knows or you think you know please comment.
