Anne, I have been looking at that page, thanks for sending it. I have a question that I need to find the answer to before I start, maybe someone can help me. Their is a procedure referred to on that page intended to discharge stored power in the capacitors (I think that's where it's stored) before working on it - there are dire warnings on other pages about stored "lethal charges" that one can be the recipient of it one touches the wrong thing while working in the power supply. The procedure is described on that page as "cycling through the power button a couple times". Does that mean hitting the main (lit while on) circular power button on the front of the case?
The hard part is getting inside the case, dealing with glued down wires, working the fan out from an area that requires flexing the metal case, hooking up the fan to power.
