My son's computer, made by ABS technology,
had intermittent turn on for a
while. It finally will not turn on at all.
The computer is about 6 years old and the CPU
runs at about 700 Mhz.
The power supply is an SH 250 watt unit with 4 large
connectors, 2 small connectors and the connection
to the main board.
I plugged in an old ATX 200 watt power supply and it turned on
when the start button was pressed. I believe the problem
with the starting is the power supply and am looking
to purchase a replacement. The power supply I tried does
not have the correct dimensions or connectors and
I would like to get one with a higher power rating.
The fuse in the old power supply is good and beyond
that, troubleshooting becomes questionable.
Are there any items I should be aware of when purchasing
the new supply other than physical dimensions and
mounting holes? I assume the CPU operating
voltage is determined on the main board..
