This is starting to get too complicated vs. simply replacing it, with the exception of the fuse. I'll open the shroud and have a look around for the fuse.

Since I'm leaning toward the power supply needing replaced, based on age and make, do you have any suggestions on quality power supplies I can look at when making a power supply decision for my desktop?

It's been pretty consistent that my last 3 desktop builds have all experienced power supply failures, albeit they've provided a good 4 or 5 years of life, I'd still...

Re: Antec cp-850

I have a big 0.00 VDC on pins 7 and 9 (purple and black).

Hello, I have the ANTEC CP-850 power supply that died on me and unfortunately it's a pretty specific power supply that fits in only one of 3 towers (I have the Antec P183).

I'd like to have my CP-850 refurbished or repaired due to it sort of being such a specific power supply for the case it's intended for, not to mention it was pretty expensive.

ANTEC has a power supply "test" to confirm if it's the power supply that's dead or if another component is the culprit (motherboard, HDD, CPU, etc.). It did not pass their test by jumpering a couple pins together...

Hello, I've joined in hopes to find individuals that are knowledgeable with desktop builds and troubleshooting.

I currently have an ANTEC power supply that has died and I'll be posting in search of some help. Hoping to find someone that refurbishes or repairs power supplies.
