On a different box, however, I had the motherboard grounding to the case and because of that, the power supply would not come on. I can't imagine a 300W AOpen not having enough oomph to at least power up an ABit motherboard. If you look at the certified power supplies for an AMD chip, there are a couple of 300W. -- Perry Hoekstra E-Commerce Architect Talent Software Services perry.hoekstra at talentemail.com
