We have a rather odd specialist desktop PC that got a knackered power
unit. This wouldn't normally be a problem but on this series of units
they had a slightly lower in height power unit.

Where most all of them are 140 mm high and 85 mm wide and around 150 mm
deep (front to back) this one is 120 mm high! (85 x 120 x 150).
A standard one will stick out of the top of the case which isn't
required;!. Anyone know what they are called and know of anywhere in the
UK you can obtain one from they have the normal fixings and IEC input
and output lads just need this reduced height!..

cheers..

Dell boxes can be like that.
You seem rather coy on naming the actual make/model!


Yes well, there simply isn't one this was made up out of component parts
a while ago now even the power unit hasn't got anything recognisable on
it!..

Go on google / fleabay with the make/model, and you will usually find a
replacement.


Bin there haven't found one!..


Do you have a digital camera ?

It's possible to post a picture of your "puzzle" on imageshack.us
(being careful to tick the box to prevent them from reducing the
resolution).

Are the connectors standard AT ? Or standard ATX with 2x10 or 2x12
for the main power ?

To give an example of how big a picture you can post, this is
a benchmark I posted some time ago.

You could take pictures from several angles, and then glue them
all together into one picture.
