Ok, looks like i need a new Power Supply Unit then, heres the full specs of my PC> UKT Support - Advent 3118 PC mine differs slightly because the GFX card is different (obviously) i have a DVD combi drive instead of 2 seperate ones and i`ve removed the card reader cos it was broken...Any suggestions for a PSU?
