I put the finishing touches on a system I have slowly been getting pieces for over the last few months. After getting everything together I plugged the PSU in and immediately it started to smoke and the PC just started to beep.
I don't have a system I can switch the components into to test individually, but I did have another PSU available. Lights, fans and everything seems to operate, but I don't get a post only a repetitive beep from the system speaker. I've had things go wrong before, but never a PSU like this. What's the potential that things (m'board, CPU, memory and etc.) got hosed? I am RMA'ing the PSU for sure and I need to try and iron out the rest.
My basic setup is this:
Smoking PSU: Powmax LP6100A
M'board: Albatron-KX400-8X Pro
512 MB Corsair XMS DDR 2700
AMD XP 2400+ (retail)
Albatron Ge4 ti 4280
Liteon 52x24x52
Maxtor 40G HDD
I am a bit lost here, any help appreciated. I guess my next step is to use my known good PSU and remove items and see if I can get some sort of life. Comments... Suggestions??
