Dell Dimension 3100C Power Supply
It is usually pretty easy to install a new PSU in the Dimension 3100C desktop. It is always better to replace a power supply with the same wattage or larger. You do not always want to go with the cheapest PSU because it is an important barrier between the power coming from your wall and delicate components inside your Dell. The PSU, or power supply, is responsible for powering the motherboard, CPU, hard drive and other components that need power. Purchasing a new Dell Dimension 3100C PSU can be a breeze, especially if you still have the old PSU to measure, size-wise.
What warnings should I watch out for to know if my power supply is failing?
- You smell burnt wires in the power supply
- The PC refuses to start
- Your Dell turns off while under a heavy load
