Sometimes when your power goes out, sometimes you might get a power surge. What happens is this. Your power supply in your computer will slowly start to break down. When it does, Your computer will not start. When it reaches the point where it won't start, you will need a new power supply. What happened to me was this! I turned off the power bar witch killed the router because we were having issues. Sometimes when I turned it back on. my on switch flashed like it wanted to run. When I tried to turn it on it wouldn't turn over. I had to get a new power supply! Now it works. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Gene" <gsasner@xxxxxxxxx>

This thread raises a question it would be nice to have an answer to. If the 
explanation isn't too cumbersome to write, I'd appreciate finding out the
answer.
Why do power supplies fail? If they fail, is it the transformer that fails 
or whatever rectifies the current.  I am unaware of anything in a
transformer that should fail but maybe it can.

Nope, won't make a bit of difference.  It's just a new transformer.

Hi! I just have a quick question. If the power supply in my computer is
changed, will that impact jaws? I'm thinking it wouldn't because that
isn't
hardware or software related, but am curious as I may need to replace my
power supply.
Thanks!
Missy
