Hello,

I'm debating whether or not to try and fix a computer that was turned on
and
run for some period of time with the incorrect voltage set on the power
supply (220V instead of 110V.) I'm guessing that incorrectly setting the
input power on the supply causes a more or less standard effect on the
computer, most likely mother board power regulation - anyone know what
this
effect is? Any help is greatly appreciated! I don't want to go down this
path just to find out every part on the board is toast!


Thanks!



The computer is probably just fine, though I'd be inclined to replace the
damaged power supply rather than try to repair it, though it could be
something simple like a blown fuse.
