i have ASUS M2N-E mobo with AMD 64x2 3800+ 2GHz with geforce 7100 GS gfx card.
five days ago some wire burnt smell was there. then i 've opened the casing and checked everything. fine the pc worked. two days ago the pc didnt boot after succesful shutdown.
the cpu fan rotates for a while and stops. i hav removed all other components except one ram hdd.but no response. then all the power connections i've re-fixed. then i could see the wires from SMPS release some smoke and even i can sense high temp in the wires form smps to the components..
is it the psu problem or other problm.
i know anyway hav to go for new psu..but whts the reason..
can any body pls help me out

Jump to Postprobably was just the power supply !! if you are lucky you may not have damaged anything else ,you got your warning when you first smell something burning !you should have stopped using the computer then and had it looked at .hopefully you did nt ruin the motherboard !
Jump to Postyeah you should really have stopped using it and got a new psu when it smelt wierd
you have probably killed everything
