Well first of all I think the PSU is the problem on my Medion desktop. It will power up for a couple of seconds then switch off without even displaying anything on the screen.
I've got the PSU out and it's 350W but I can't find a good match on ebay. The connections I have unplugged are:
- 20 pin connection to the motherboard, although there are 24 holes on the MB
- 4 pin connection to the MB in a 2x2 arrangement - fan?
- P3 edge connector to the hard drive
- P4 edge connector to a connection going off to a couple other places
- P11 edge connector to DVD
Is this a standard config [url= http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/CASECOM-350W-20-24-PIN-PC-COMPUTER-POWER-SUPPLY-UNIT-PSU-350-WATT-/110782102802 ]like this[/url] which seems to have all the connections bar the 4 pin connection?
[url= http://www.scan.co.uk ]Scan[/url] have a good selection which starts at about half of the price of the ebay item you've suggested.
Don't skimp on the power supply whatever you do. Buy a reputable brand like Corsair.
