Hello all, I have been working on a DIY arcade project and I am afraid I might have just killed my power supply or maybe something worse and was hoping someone with more knowledge than me might give me a place to start trouble shooting.
So in the excitement of "I'm almost able to play games!" I inadvertently hooked up the +5v jamma lead to the -5v contact on my power supply. When I first plugged in the power supply the power on led lit for a brief moment then turned off I am assuming because it was very unhappy with being hooked up wrong and possibly killed it. So after you are done laughing at me does anyone have any ideas on what I can do? Is there anything I can check or is a new power supply in my future, or might it be something further down the line? Left my millimeter at work so I cant check till tomorrow... I am just kind of panicking right now. If its helpful information I am running a Mv-1b mother board and everything was working fine hooked up on the table top a couple weeks ago.
Thanks in advances for any help!
