Hi,
My HP Prodesk pc suddenly turns off when I play video games or sometimes when under heavy load. I am certain it's the power supply that causes the problem. I tried removing the supply and jump-starting the green and black wire(from the 3rd connector), it turned on, but there was some weird noise coming from the transformer. The HP power supply has 3 connectors, 2 (4 pins) connectors, one is for the CPU and the other is for the Hard drives. And for the third connector, there is this grey wire that outputs only 9.97V.
-3rd connector
-The transformer with a weird noise
-Was the grey wire originally 10V?
-Can I safely replace it with an ATX power supply?
Thanks in advance for the answers
