Took power supply out of machine with 'issues'. It turned out to be an Antec.
Put no-name (but high efficiency) supply from other machine in and it worked fine.
Then put the Antec into my secondary machine. No boot. left power cord plugged in.
While I was on on 'Egg buying the OCZ the Antec (with no load on it) started spitting sparks and smoke. I am glad that I was sitting right next to it.
