That looks very useful.  I'll give it a try.

On another list that I frequent, the two responses thus far both 
suggested replacing or swapping out the PS.  I have to admit the idea 
has merit, though it's an Antec Signature 650, came new with the rest of 
the system, and over $200 here including the taxes.  I'm a little leery 
of ending up with a good, but effectively useless, PS.  Which leads to 
another question: how do you test a PS?  Is it possible?

Thanks again

Cam
