IainB Posted December 4, 2009 Share Posted December 4, 2009 I just bought this PSU. It's in an Antec Two Hundred case, and is mounted upside down. If I move the PC, or touch the kettle lead, I hear electric crackling from the power socket. This happens even when the PSU is switched off (& the wall plug is on). I used another kettle lead, and noticed the same problem, though to a lesser extent (that lead seemed to have a snugger fit to the PSU though). This is a new build, I haven't even installed windows yet, but I can boot and get to BIOS setup OK. Is the inverted position causing this, or this something that can be ignored, or am I looking at an RMA? Thanks in advance! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IainB Posted December 6, 2009 Author Share Posted December 6, 2009 Thank you for the fast response! However... as I was preparing to remove the PSU... I realised I hadn't pushed the kettle plug ALL the way in... <groan> On the bright side, it works perfectly now! Perhaps the VX just has a snug socket (he said, desperately trying not to look like a complete idiot) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
