The power-supply in my computer has apparently fried part of itself. It is smelling rather bad, but the computer just keeps on running. Here are the voltages being reported:


Do computers really have no use for these failed voltages? Or is speedfan reporting wrong?

Replaced the power supply, still reading wrong, although it is no longer smells of burning electronics. Took it apart and it seems the filter diodes were cooking but still working, easy to replace. Seems like there was no mystery after-all, merely defective/incompatible voltage monitoring on the motherboard.
