470W ATX PSU Repair - This power supply is a beast of a thing! However it still contains the same circuits and functions as a more usual one - just everything is much beefier and chunkier.

The PSU powers on and immediately powers back off again. In this video I work out how the circuit sections are arranged, and try to diagnose the problem.

This is Number 4 of the 16 ATX Power Supplies that I mentioned in the 'Hall of Shame' on this video
