You can remove all the power supply plugs from the components by pulling them out.
The power plug on the motherboard will have a little hook you need to press....

big wire from PSU to motherboard
very small wire from PSU to motherboard
and...whatelse?


i see a wire from motherboard to DVD drive but I guess I just leave them?

Its usually on the long side of the connector itself.

Since you are changing the PSU, you need to remove ALL cables from the PSU to the mainboard and other devices. All other cables can stay as they are.

Best to disconnect everything TBH, it'll make putting a new PSU in a bit easier
and tidier. I have no idea what that blue line is though.

yeah, that blue line is very mysterious.

and I don't understnad why there is no PSU connection to the DVD drive.

and if u look at this
http://minihp.cyworld.nate.com/pims/...5&tid=25904660
wires are attached to blue plastic below the PSU, making them tight so that u don't make messes, but if i get rid of PSU, i guess it will become messy.

The blue line is probably a clip of some sort, they keep all the clips the same colour....

Joon - you need to unplug all power cables and remove the PSU, then put in the PSU in and stick all the cables back into the original locations. I dont see whats so hard to understand about this?
Just make a note of where all the PSU cables go before you remove them.
