Compaq Deskpro AP230 Power Supply
It is usually pretty easy to install a power supply in your Compaq computer. Purchasing a new Compaq Deskpro AP230 power supply is quite simple as long as you have the old one to make a size comparison to. It is always a good idea to replace an old power supply with at least the same watts, if not bigger. The PSU, or power supply, is responsible for powering the hard drive, motherboard and any other peripherals in the PC. Do not just look at the price of a new power supply because it is the only barrier between the power coming from your wall and delicate components inside your Compaq.
How can I tell if my main power source needs to be replaced?
- The Compaq shuts down while under a taxing load
- You smell burning plastic inside the power supply
- Computer is unable to start
