(My memory may be fuzzy on this) After installing the ThermalTake, I could not get the computer to boot to Windows or even recognize the DVD drive or HDD. I tested my computer with a friend's PSU and everything worked fine, so I RMA'd my PSU and bought a ThermalTake SP-850M 850 Watt locally to replace it while I waited for the RMA replacement. The computer either wouldn't turn on, or it would turn on for a minute, boot into Windows, and then a BIOS message would state that it was turning off because of power surges. Within three days, my Corsair HX750 750 Watt PSU went bad. I just can't get the HDD to show up in the BIOS menu.About five months ago, I built my first gaming PC. I connected the 2TB HDD via USB to SATA adapter & it works fine. OLD PSU: Thermaltake toughpower gold 750W I unplugged the sata and power cables from my new disk drive to test both HDD with no success, but i plugged the disk drive back in and that still was working fine.ĭo I have just really bad of luck atm to have three HDDs die on me or is there something that I can do to fix this problem? So i had swapped the sata and power cables over from my mate's spare HDD to my new HDD drive and now all of a sudden both HDD don't work! The disk drive was working but the new HDD was not. I bought a new HDD and disk drive today and plugged them both in, leaving my mate's spare HDD in.

So my friend lent me his spare HDD and installed the OS on there for me as I had no disk drive, which worked fine on my PC. When I put the PSU in, I realised that my old PSU blew my hdd and my blue ray player as well. I went out and bought a new PSU (Corsair CS750M, which is also gold rating) as I'm getting another PC built for my mum, so I'll replace the psu under warranty and give it to mum for when she gets hers built. Once I had woken, I noticed that my PSU (thermaltake 750W toughpower gold) had blown. The other day I had left my PC on overnight as I was installing a game off steam.
