Power Supply on a computer is an energy source that drives your computer. With power supply, hardware on the computer is given "power" to be able to work in accordance with their respective functions.
Power Supply on a computer to work as a flow modifier (Adapter) from the AC current into DC. Power supply is working on 2 pieces teganggan DC, 5 Volt and 12 Volt. In a power supply, voltage 12 Volt usually marked with a yellow cable, while the voltage is 5 Volt marked with a red cord.
Damage usually occurs on a power supply
Power supply is designed to be used for a long period (approximately 5 years). But in the journey, many power supply that has defects. Damage to a power supply not only the total dead condition, which as we know. In the power supply that can be seen live already suffered damage resulting computer does not work optimally. Some damage (errors) in the power supply:
1. Death of the fan or fan spinning slowly
Death of the power supply fan, or fan that spins slowly resulting in power supply circuits, particularly IC experiencing excessive heat. If allowed, then this heat will cause jebolnya IC. And it is not likely to result in the death of the power supply.
Death of the fan and damage to the IC in the power supply also resulted not in an optimal berkerjanya other hardware in the computer-hardware, such as hard drives, motherboards. Genesis such as the Blue Screen, restart your computer or Hangs no operation could be due to fan power supplya. More info on the fan you can see here.
2. Power supplies that do not produce voltage as appropriate
In certain conditions, the voltage generated by a power supply is not working properly. On a power supply voltage is 5 Volt and 12 Volt. There is a range that is allowed to rise and fall of a voltage. For example, the voltage of 5 Volt when working on voltage 5.1 Volt or 4.9 Volt usually still allowed. To see if the power supply is working on the required voltage range you can see it on the Hardware Monitor or Hardware Management in the BIOS.
Excess or deficiency also resulted in malfunction of voltage on the computer hardware. It could even cause damage.
3. Power supply socket loose
This condition usually occurs due to frequent lift and install the power supply. For example, often mutually disk. It could also occur because of the low quality of power supply. Due kendornya socket power supply to the hardware, causing a hardware malfunction. For example kendornya power socket to the disk, the disk will not work.

Tips to maintain power supply in order to remain durable
- Make sure you buy the power supply to suit your computer needs. Buy power supply that is guaranteed quality.
- Make sure when you install a power supply on your computer already in the correct position. Make a tightening of the socket-outlet power supply to the motherboard, hard drive, CDRom, etc.. If you do the installation is not correct it will be fatal and can be a fire or a short-circuit will occur on your hardware.
- Check your power supply voltages in the BIOS Hardware Monitor or Hardware Management. Is it permissible range qualified. If it does not fit will usually be marked with red writing.
- Check the condition of the fan at any time at least 3 months. Or, when you have a problem on your computer such as Hang, Restart and Total death. Clean the fan if necessary and give a lubricant (contact cleaner) in as a fan.
- Do not put your CPU is too close (mepet) with the wall. Because it would cause air circulation fan should be running with the operation will be disrupted.
