I've been out of the loop with desktop PC's for ages. Its all laptops and tablets nowadays in our house.
My last desktop stopped working for no apparent reason over a year. It was a unit I built myself about 6 years ago based on the original Antec Sonata!!
Now I'd like to get it up and running if possible for use by my son. I think the PSU might be the culprit. The light on the front of the case flickers on and off very faintly and quickly but there are no other signs of life.
Are there any obvious ways to check what went wrong? will a new PSU work in such an old case?
Thanks in advance....
