[QUOTE="2cvbloke, post: 900865, member: 199791"] That's nothing, once when I had a computer come in or repair at the computer shop, they said it "doesn't work" (useful tip, don't say "it doesn't work", it pisses techs off!!), so in my build room, I plugged it in, switched it on, and I have never seen such a fantastic display of fireworks in such a small space!!! The PSU pretty much blew up taking out everything inside (must have shorted mains to the DC rail or something), and the smoke that billowed out was very acrid, my build room stank for a week afterwards!!! o_O I can't remember what we told the customer, suffice to say it was something along the lines of "unsalvageable"...:-doh [/QUOTE]
