Howdy,

It's been rough since my last message.  My puter made a fairly loud pop
sound and then went dark.  Trust me, it went dark in here.  My monitors
and everything went black.  That's not something this room sees much. 
Anyway, my power supply decided to take a long nap.  The primary
capacitor went out.  It's still in tact and all but it is domed up
pretty good.  I'm not sure what made the pop sound since the cap is in
somewhat good shape.  It's domed enough I'm 99.99% sure it started the
mess.  I'm just glad I bought a good one since my mobo and all seems to
be fine.  Those protection circuits did a awesome job.  It was a
ThermalTake that was several years old.  I got my money's worth and then
some. 

I bought a new power supply.  It's a Evga 650 watt, same wattage as old
one.  Sticker says 100-N1-0650-L1.  I had to drive about 70 miles to get
to a big computer store.  The repair guy says he uses them a lot and has
only had one or two go out under warranty.  He said the protection
circuits work good on those and protected the mobo etc.  I'll do more
research later on and order a better one if needed. 

I'm thinking about replacing that cap and seeing if it works.  I've
repaired a few monitors that way but my question is, should I trust it
after replacing that cap even if it works??  Should it be load tested or
something?  Does the protection circuitry only work once? 

Trying to get things back going here.  Just glad my baby has that
annoyingly bright blue LED back on.  ROFL
