The "hum" can come from a "on the way to die belly in the air" cap or 
from a vibrating transformer (to the AC frequency).

This can usually be cured… either by changing the faulty element, or by 
securing the transformator if it's only a bit loose.

Now, don't do this if you don't know what you are doing… A new PSU is 
not that expensive.
