Hello,
I got an ASUS M2A-VM motherboard for Christmas, and I cannot get it to turn the power supply on. The LED on the motherboard is on, but the power supply will not turn on. Here are the parts:
Antec SP500 ATX 12v PSU
AMD Athlon 64 X2 5600+
4GB G-Skill SDRAM
ATI Radeon x1800
SoundBlaster Audigy 4 Pro
I know that the power supply works, as I just changed the motherboard and the psu works fine with the old motherboard. I've examined every section of the motherboard and checked every connection multiple times, and I see no reason at all for it to not be working. I've also tried booting only the motherboard and I still had the same problem. Is it possible that the power supply is too weak? Could the motherboard or processor be faulty? Thanks for your help!
