thanks for the reply but I've put it in to a tv and audio repair shop, It should get fixed quicker with less hassle that way but if it doesn't then I'll be back on here pestering everyone again!

Ok, it's not cheap, but it's better than completely trashing the original PSU if you slip up and blow it to kingdom come!!!
