I can’t believe that HP put a computer out there with a 200w power supply. The computer I’m working on seems to have a failing power supply. It doesn’t start on the first try. You have to power it up a few times before it kicks in. Other symptoms include an inability to power a USB external drive and a detected, but unpowered network card. I don’t know for certain if this is a case without using a multimeter, but it sure looks that way. The model number for the power supply is FSP200-60SPV-D, which is readily available at this time from $25 to $45 plus shipping.
Afterwards, I’ll be rinstalling Windows XP on this computer without reformatting.
