Ya, disks don't "POP" when they die, so I bet it's fine. I don't think I've ever seen a motherboard go when the PSU blows, but I suppose that one would be more plausible than the disks. Good luck...John
Thanks John. The reason why I questioned whether it was a hard drive is because lately when the computer shuts down, instead of winding down (the noise of the drives spinning), a couple of times it seemed that it stopped abruptly. :-O Lord only knows which one. (If it IS a hard drive, I'm praying it's one of the 200gb drives that doesn't have anything of importance on them.
