I'm trying to test the main board, but I don't have a proper power supply.
I'm using one of these to connect an old ATX PSU but it's not booting.
What happens when I ground the green wire is that the hard drives spin, the video card shows its start-up text, and continues showing it until I release the wire. No beep codes.
I know the problem isn't the video card because it works fine in my test board, I doubt it's load-related because I have two hard drives connected, and I tried putting a 1k resistor between the 'power on' and '5v' wires as a pull-up, but that didn't help.
Your thoughts?
