It is down to the switches on the back of the psu, my friends were rather silly and one tried to make his have a greater output power, so he flicked the red switch.... long story short, he phoned up his other friend and told him what he had done, and he did it too thinking that it would help, but only after he'd said what he'd done did he proceed to say it blew up his psu.

i need instructions for were those ltittle connectors though because that page didnt help

If the type of motherboard is exactly the one you said earlier, then the manual posted by Madman is the one you should use. It is a very clear manual and describes everything in a very detailed manner as where to connect all the stuff on the mobo.

Nobody will be able to give you more detailed info as described in that manual. With all respect, but if you fail to read that manual or don't understand it, then maybe you also shouldn't be fiddling with this kind of stuff and let someone with the proper knowledge do it for you...

my dad blew up our old computer by changing the voltage switch, while it was on, it just went 'PWuUfFFFffffTTTTTTtttT' and turned off,and then wouldnt turn on or anything....i love my new PC....

In terms of customer satisfaction the current ratings of Aria Technology Limited ("Aria PC Technology") aria.co.uk, mostly over returns, variy on some sites from 67% ngative to 0 out of 10 for the past 6 months -with a continuously dropping lifetime rating of now only 3.03 out 10, in "Britain's biggest computer magazine with a product rating of only 3, and another computer magazine recently having announced that what Aria Technology Limited submitted for its labaratory tests was not what it was selling to the consumers -there are consumer comments in terms of receipt neither of goods ordered (or even back what were returned) nor a refund.

Thanks for the info, but this thread is over 20 months old...
