Question about Enermax (by Coolergiant) ELT400AWT Liberty (Lowest Noise) 400W ATX /BTX Power Supply ATX 12 Ver 2.2 ... (CSPSEM400AWT) Power Supply
I install it plug in 20 pin, 12 volt and the three drives, turn on the PC and it will not boot up my drives all it runs is the fans and I need it to run my 7950GT PCI-e x16 card. I have a Foxconn C51GU01 MB which only requires 300W to run... I am at a loss and joensin to try out my new card. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Retrace your steps there may be a loose wire(s). Have you checked and rechecked your pinouts? maybe one of the wires is backwards. Hate when that happens. It could be bad out of box. Try unhooking everything then one by one rehook your components. Maybe by terrible coinsidence a part fried and is preventing the machine from booting. Make sure your CPU fan is plugged in. I am installing a new motherboard now and those are the pitfalls I keep track of.

Ok I went over everything.. finally I got sick of it and re-installed my old factory PSU, plugged in my new enermax to my power strip and connected just the 6 pin PCI-e cord to my 7950 GT (no other wires from the enermax are connected to my PC at all). When I turn on my tower I click the enermax switch to the off position and in a couple seconds the enermax and my video card powers up. I talked to a guy from the "Geek Squad" about it and he said that my card should NOT be working nor should my enermax be getting any power to the card. But alas it works and it runs around 57 degrees OC'd of course I have the side panel open because of the PSU I have next to it just to power my card. I don't really understand WTH is up with this thing. My E-mail is [email protected] if you'd like to discuss this in more depth send me an e-mail with an obvious subject heading.
Oh yeah and thank you for your advice.
