Which thing does not belong?

I have never seen this mistake before. If the shoe fits - wear it. Bad PS, Bad MB, maybe bad RAM as well.

It's the extra power going to the MB, the small one that usually goes to a 3.5 floppy drive. What do I win ?

I like the fact that it looks like whoever did it had to use a splitter to get power to the soundcard...

Another Fine Job :thumbs:

This picture kind of reminds of the old days when people put SIMMS into PCI slots.

I've seen that done before. I've also seen people plug the power lead for the front LED display (you know the displays that would either show a number, or just say HI) into the SPID in......lots of melted plastic insulation.

Naw. They were in the old days. The time you are talking about is the old old days. And before that, it was the old old old days. Then before that was the Ice Age.

I had someone plug one of those onto the digital out pins of their CD-ROM - yep, melted plastic insulation & it didn't work no more...
