All data is saved to 7th December but none of my game updates or settings are saved.
All the other peripherals are independently powered
PROBLEM
Has anybody had problems with Hiper 350 PSUs? Not booting up until the on/off switch is thrown?
Has anybody had this type of PSU failure (the CPU fan sometimes moves but the board doesn't start. Then after a while the system starts and runs all day.
Now have had one or two stop errors with problems on the graphics card twice freezing.
Regards
Victor
