OK. In one of my previous questions I asked if my computer would turn on and work after I installed the new Processor. After I installed my new processor my computer did turn on and did work but after 20 minutes of being on it shut off. I tried to turn it back on and to no avail. I inspected the computer and smelled the power supply and it had fried itself (I could easily tell by the smell). I figured the upgrade I got on the processor increased the wattage on the processor and it was just a little too much for my power supply.
So I figure that a new power supply with more wattage would work.
My previous power supply was a 350W ATX12V It worked well with this Hardware Layout:
CPU 2.53 GHZ Processor (Broken and replaced with a 2.8 GHZ)
1.5 GB Patriot Ram
ATI 512MB Radeon HD 3650 AGP
Intel D845EBT Motherboard
My new Layout which no longer works because of the power supply is
The same as above only the 2.8 GHZ processor is now here instead of the 2.53 GHZ
The new power supply I want to get to replace it is a 400W ATX12V iMicro Power Supply.
The overall question is Will this new power supply work with my new layout or is the problem not the power supply? Im kinda lost and I would like to make sure I don't buy the wrong Item. The Motherboard LED still lights up when I plug the messed up Power Supply into the Mobo. But this is only the standby voltage I believe so that tells me that the mobo is still operational.
