This might be difficult to explain in the forum, but I will give it a shot.
Last fall my neighborhood got hit by a huge blackout, this was in august (you may have heard about it on the news, as it affect almost all of Michigan, Ohio, all the way up to toronto) Anyway, just before the blackout was a few small brownouts)
When the power came back on i tried to start my PC and the system began to start then nothing. a better explanation of this would be, the fans began to spin and then stopped. I ended up buying a new PSU and everything was fixed, but I have a pretty nice enermax 350W psu sitting in my basement. I opened it up and noticed that the fuse had poped, So I replaced it and tried it again and it poped again.
Does anyone have any idea if this psu can be repaired? Is it something simple that I could do myself?
I am just curious, I know this is a pretty complicated situation and maynot be able to be answered without further inspection.
Thanks!
