[LUNI] OT: Question about power supply

[Michael Salsman]

Because I'm an idiot, that's why ...

I was attempting to figure out where a cyclic noise was coming from, and 
was attempting to see if it was either of the two hard drives, the CD or 
DVD, or the floppy ... the floppy power cable was not fully seated ... 
when I grabbed it ... I ended up pulling it off and immediately touching 
the pins again ...

By the way, in case you are wondering ... the noise stopped ...  LOL
