Guys I just opened my X-Box today because I saw a very large blue spark come from within...

I look at my X-box everything seems in order...BUT the Power supply is toast...Luckily I have an extra computer PSU laying around...is there ANY way I could get it to power the Xbox...I already know how to get the PSU to run without a motherboard...

I just need a second opinion...I think its entirely possible...since an X-box after all...IS a computer.

Have you tried looking online at an XBOX modding site? Perhaps they'd have information.

Googling 'xbox power supply' gives several sites that sell replacement power supplys, such as this one, for $30.00US.
