    No, but I can order one. Thanks for the idea.

    NVMe SSD no longer recognized

    I took out a Samsung 950 M.2 NVMe that was working fine as my boot drive, reinstalled it, and now neither BIOS nor Windows 10 recognizes it. It heats up when the computer is on. I've taken it out and reinstalled it several times to no avail. I live in a small city and don't think I know...

    Problem: Case short

    I did take everything but the PSU out and disconnected everything else from the MB, I mean everything except the CPU and a stand-alone power switch that I bought. Same problem.

    Problem: Case short

    I don't really know, but I've done all the things with the standoffs etc. It continues to work with everything except the PSU inside the case. I am going to put it into a new case and see. I think there is too much slack for bends of the cables at the MB to produce a short based on the PSU's...

    Problem: Case short

    Replaced the MB. It didn't work. The only thing I haven't replaced is the case.

    Quiet, no shorting-out case

    Thanks, I ordered one. I hope it works.

    Off the MB, I mean.

    Problem: Case short

    It didn't work when I took everything except the PSU out of the case. I took the I/O shield off when I did that.

    Problem: Case short

    It works if everything is out of the case. No extra standoffs. Already bought a stand-alone power switch and tried that, it doesn't help so long as the PSU is still in the case. I hate having to keep buying replacement parts but it seems to be the case and I don't think I can wrap the PSU in...

    Problem: Case short

    Neither has anyone else, apparently. I suppose I have to replace the case and hope that works. Love your avatar, BTW ha.

    Quiet, no shorting-out case

    Thanks. Looks like a good possibility.

    Problem: Case short

    I do have standoffs. What would the elevation test tell me? It's next to the case on the floor now.

    Quiet, no shorting-out case

    Any recs for a very quiet, professional-looking (for business) case that is sure not to have shorts? I have to leave my PSU outside the open case of my machine or else it powers off suddenly (rest of computer still inside). Must be a short in the case. Already replaced PSU and cables. Thanks.

    Problem: Case short

    Yes, I've plugged and unplugged the connectors many times and replaced the cables. Already replaced the PSU. I think it has to be the case but I can find no loose screws. Anyway, entire thing is in the case now except for the PSU and it's working. (PSU is on the floor next to the open case.)

    Problem: Case short

    Old problem of machine turning on for a second and then turning off is back. Turns out that apparently it is a case short bc when EVGA PSU is outside of the case, it doesn't happen. Already replaced the PSU bc I thought that was it so don't think it's the PSU that is the problem. Can't figure...
