I may have found the answer, but was hoping to get a second opinion before I spend more money on a PSU.

My desktop was working fine the other day, now when I power it on, I do not get a post beep. I have researched the issue and from what i have found, It may be a problem with my power supply. Should I go ahead and order a new PSU, or could it be something simple? Currently, I have a non modular 1000 watt psu that I salvaged from my old desktop. Prior to that, It was only 6 months+ old.

Any advice is greatly appreciated.

Source I got my information from

Is this something Best Buy might carry? Ive never used one before.


Side note: I have a blinking red light on the mobo. The label beside it reads "DRAM_LED"
Could this be related? Im assuming if it was working fine before, then the memory I am using should be fine, right?

ETA: I may go ahead an order this one LINK
