Hi,
I have a few 200 and 250 watt power supplies. I have spent so much money recently that It will be difficult to shell out even enough for a new power supply to support all my new hardware. I was wondering if I could Mod my cases and install another Power supply in them. Maby use one for hard drives, cdrom, etc. Other for everything else. Is this possible? Is it safe for system? If so, how would I make both power supplies start up when I press start button and also go off on shutdown?
Also, On one of my computers, The sound the fan makes is always fluctuating. Sounds like they rev up and slow down. What could cause this? This system is as follows >
AMD Athlon XP 1700+ on abit kr7a-R with 256 mb DDR 2.5c.
1 7200 rpm 40g Hard Drive
Geforce3 ti 200
CD-ROM
Several fans of all types.
Power supply is generic 300 watt.
Thanks for your help
