[QUOTE="Darklord, post: 1594, member: 119"] I had been facing a problem since i built my new system. I had a Powersafe 500Watt SMPS but it was insufficient for my system as my system used to crash,cold bot ups..... i knew it was because of the SMPS but couldnt think of a solution for it. I was not interested to keep aside my 500 Watt PSU and buy an Antec. Then i got an idea,why not use 2 PSUs? i called up MASK and talked to him regarding the same. He suggested me a solution for it but it would definately void warranty of both PSU. So what i did,i shorted the Green & the Black wire on the 20 PIN ATX mobo power supply as these 2 get short when we start the machine. Now i connected 2 HDDs,1 DVD-RW,1-92mm Fan,1-80mm Fan on the 350 Watt PSU. Now the mobo,CPU & Grafix cards only work on my 500 Watt SMPS. As soon as i did this and started my machine,it runs perfectly,no crashes,cold boot ups.... All i had to do was get a new cheap PSU. I bot the full cabinet with the PSU which cost me 1500/- i used the PSU only. So my problem was solved by spending only 1500/- instead of spending 7-8k for Antec PSU. Now isnt that cool? This can be done to any machine.So if you are facing a power shortage problem with your old PSU,dont buy a new one.Use your old one that you are not using or get a cheap 300 Watt PSU that shud be around 400/- and you are done,just split the load. I hope you like this small trick. ;) [/QUOTE]
