Power From The Wall - Chief Delphi

One last thing, if a mechanical part fails on you, sometimes you can get a little bit of noise back into it by yelling at it, kicking it, or pounding on it with your fist. This might put enough back into it so it will work for a few more minutes. - KenWittlief [more]

I added LEDS to the "power good" and "5v standby lines" as status indicators. Not necessary, but it's helpful at times.

SIDE NOTE: I suggest you avoid Dell OEM supplies. They sometimes have different color codes.
