Yeah, I was thinking that. I guess as a test, perhaps, I could
remove most of the HDs and opticals and see if that helps things. I
also had an external HD plugged into a USB port, but I don't think it
draws much power from it has it also plugs into the electrical
socket. Thanks.
I would think pulling everything internal you don't need, and seeing
if that stablizes it would be a good idea. Of course, the PS could be
damaged from overload, but I'd try it. If you want, send me the list
of all internal components and your power supply amps for the rails,
and I can give you an idea if it's overloaded.
