Possibly, but his observation already is the PS isn't spinning
its fan.  The evidence is there's no DC, so that's unlikely to
damage the board.

I have a box whose PS was poorly filtered out the AC.  I decided
to remove the AC socket and replace it with a filtered socket.
Unfortunately when I was reassembling the ring on the ground strap
spun as it was tightened and contacted one leg of a resistor too
close to the edge.  Scratch the Mobo, cards, 8GB HD, etc.  All I
salvaged was the CPU/RAM, and the bare case.  I was more careful
after that.  But Roy didn't suggest this was a PS he'd "modified".
