It may have been changed, but i doubt it as it would be causing different problems to what your experiencing. Perhaps check the PSU's with a multimeter, its highly unlikely but perhaps both PSU's dont have a stable 12v rail. Have you checked the IDE cable? Even the smallest nick or cut in the cable can cause problems, try a new cable or consider replacing it. |
