  12. (In case you read my last post, this has been a *long* night.. :(
  13.  
  14.  
  15. I have nuked about 4 power supplies in the past year in my hard drive
  16. box..  I have a Quantum 105LPS, Xetec ram/controller.  I keep frying
  17. the +12 side of the PS.  Is there a reason why this might be happening?
  18.  
  19. The last PS I fried, the +12 went to +15 and stayed there, +5 was normal.
  20. This time, the +12 starts at +12.77 and goes up to past +14.. (Haven't
  21. waited to see how far it goes..  As I leave it on, it increases..)
  22.  
  23. Anyone have an idea why this might keep happening?
  24.  
  25.  
  26. (And why computer hardware hates me?  Guess what..  I'm going to study
  27.  electronics..  Isn't that sorta like an alcoholic getting a job as
  28.  a bartender?  Maybe I should become a garbagemane..)
  29.  
  30.  
  31.  
  32. Thanks for your help...  I need it.. :(
