I wouldn't think that 0.2V out of 12V would be a problem at all, especially since the 12V lines have nothing to do with powering the motherboard (the motherboard and other circuit boards get the 5V or 3.3V). I suspect it is not the PSU. The capacitors on the motherboard do not usually 'look' bad when they go bad. They might blow, they might bulge, or they might just die and look perfectly fine. -- I'm on the path, he thought. I don't have to know where it leads. I just have to follow. _______________________________________________ MacOSX-talk mailing list MacOSX-talk@omnigroup.com http://www.omnigroup.com/mailman/listinfo/macosx-talk
