And do after this modification last longer?

Hm, I use the cdrom very seldom in this PC, as Lionel Bouton pointed out
some K7S5As had electrical failures... I thought about PowerSuplly
already, threw this though away because there is only

The Motherboard
cdrom (hardly used)
512MB RAM
3 HDDs
old intel AGP Graphics Card, never used.

connected.

Can a bad Powersupply or weak mainboard create Uncorrectable Errors on
HDDs? Again only a question to experience of this community...

So should I buy a new board or a new Powersupply...
