My machine is scangered up!!

[alpha]

I got my new board. Put it in. Nothing. I later noticed that the power lead powering the HDD and FDD were hot. I've tried the board with another PSU - nothing.
Spec:
k6-2 450
Chaintech 5agm2
64mb Infineon SDRAM
4mb permedia2
Crystal Sound card
2gb WD HDD
FDD
40x CD
Please help me!!

Ok, here's da 411:
Boards burnt.
HDDs burnt.
CPUs ok.
CDs ok.
PSU caused it all.
Well, I can probably only afford to go for a Cyrix MII333 if I have to pay to fix this. At least I still have my dignity - and an SLI rig. Life $UX

edit~
Think the HDDs ok - cheap chinese PSU better not have killed my Stick of Infineon, or some comunists are goin' down!!

hmm - no one cares

I think I can afford a new board, but I mightn't be able to upgrade to my planned C366 system
Thanks guys - I'll let ya know what happens -the person who owns the local computer store said they might be able to scam me another board under warrentee
