    PSU Problem [urgent]

    I just bought a new PSU as the last one died.

    But here's the reading I am getting from it:

    The -5V is off the chart! What is going on?

    [Strange though, I've never gone cheap with PSU just to be safe, but I am still having problems with them The PSU that died was an Antec Trueblue 480W and this one a Enermax Noisetaker 600W)

    Have you got a multimeter to check that that is an accurate reading?

    I am afraid not.. The machine for over a day (though - no smoke or anything.. what does having positive number in the -5V mean?).
