Alas, poor Shuttle

My trusty SB51G appears to be dead.

My gut feeling is that it could be the PSU; You get that electrical crackle when you connect the plug, but absolutley nothing when you press the button; Not fans, lights. Damn thing has been faultless for 2 years too!

I'll have more time over the weekend to try reseting the bios and the usual remove and re-seat stuff. Obviously its a good time to get a silent PSU if it is a dead psu but before that, i need to know:

1) Could I use a normal ATX PSU for testing if it is dead?

2) Where's the best place to get a silent PSU from?

3) Any ideas what it could be if not the PSU?

1) Absolutely

2), 3) Not so sure.

yup..... tis the PSU! Phew!

Hmmm whilst its in bits, I think that HDD upgrade is Loooooong overdue... and maybe cut the grills....

Oh no! it begins!
