There are several different techniques you can use when troubleshooting a PC power supply. The simplest technique would be checking the power outlet supply sourcing the computer. Often, a power supply issue can be as simple as a faulty connection. The faulty connection can be the result of an outlet not working or a cable not being connected properly. Discharging the computer is another troubleshooting method used. Discharging the computer consists of unplugging all the cable connections from the computer and waiting for a brief period then reconnecting all the cables. Another troubleshooting method is one called the jumper test method. The jumper test is also known as the paper clip method. The paper clip method allows you to verify PSU functionality when it is disconnected from the components inside a PC. This test will identify some common issues like short circuits inside the power supply, Failed components, and a live power connection. (smartbuyer)
