Dreamcast PSU
Since I kind of powered my DC without that clear plastic under the PSU for the Dreamcast, It caused it to blow! Is it sufficient to power it with a picoPSU, or should I try to find a replacement one? I am soon transmogrifying it into a portable, so I'll need some way to power my Dreamcast. Thanks for the help!

Re: Dreamcast PSU
If you decide to not make a portable, and don't mind the system being ugly, you can actually power a DC with an ATX computer PSU. The computer psu outputs the volts the DC needs (12, 5, 3.3).
rest in peace, Ronnie James Dio! \m/

Re: Dreamcast PSU
So, It can't be powered with a picoPSU? And where are you able to buy an ATX computer PSU? I tried doing a google search but couldn't find a store that sells it. Thanks a lot!

Re: Dreamcast PSU
Oh, haha, Now I see the picoPSU listed as ATX PSU on the side, silly me! So, I guess I'll order it, and I'll be on my way to get my DC up and running! Thank you all for the help!
