PSU which one!? by xsmallheartx
Hi, Recently my current PSU started to stink very badly so I took it out, I am going to try return it as it is still in warranty but im not sure whether they will take it or not. And I don't really have the time if it takes months to get back without a computer. I am starting to think that it wasn't powerful enough. I know Watts has a bit to do it with it but are unsure about 12V rails, etc etc.

Internal Wiring Problem by Gingbeard
It would seem like the wiring in my recently bought 'gaming' PC from eBay is shot... if you move the internal wires, around with the PC on (I mean, just poke the bundle of wires) all sorts can go wrong, if you move the fan wires, the fans come off and on and the graphic's card's power does the same.... What is going on?? What can I do to sort this problematic wiring problem? I do not believe it...

No luck - it still would lock up the computer at times, even after being recognized in My Computer, Disk Manager, Device Manager et al. It worked with usb, firewire, and, with Vista...

TI PCIxx12 Integrated FlashMedia Controller by John A Grandy[_2_]
Toshiba Satellite X205-SLi4 Windows Vista Ultimate 32-bit SP2 Does anyone know where to get the latest TI PCIxx12 Integrated FlashMedia Controller ? I went to ti.com but I have never experienced a worse website for the purpose of locating & downloading drivers. I couldn't find it. ( In contrast, nVIDIA's website is so easy it's almost impossible not to quickly find the correct driver. )

Any suggestion on how to get my mouse pointer to...
