S-presso dead

My little Asus S-presso small-form-factor PC that was running Ubuntu is dead.

Fans don’t even spin when I try to power it up. I suspect that the power supply burned out.

    I had a lot of problems replacing the Asus power supply in the S-presso the Pn:SL-22A (Pn:04-185007700 or its replacements the 04G-185007701 currently not aivailable anywhere so I went to http://www.enuinc.com here in Hillsboro , Or and got a MICRO ATX 250W P4-12V Model MP4 25 ATX (KY350ATX) AND ITS 250W I had to remove the 4 screows holding the top of the power supply and then remove the 4 screws holding the fan then cut a 1/4 of an inch off the tpower supply to reducde the hight of the power supply by a 1/4 of an inch then attach one screw to the back of the power supply to mout the power supply at leastAPPROX 1/2 AN INCH FRON THE LEFT HAND SIDE OF THE CASE FROM THE BACK VIEW. I secured the fan using a small tie wrap so that it wouldhe fan across the opened power supplyto help cool it

    I had 2 of these from ASUS and within a month of each other, they both died.

    What a bunch of “CRAP”. I think we should BLOG the hell out this and maybe that would get ASUS’s attention.

    Sincerely,

    A VERY UNHAPPY ASUS customer
