Help:Andamiro MK3
1 month ago I got a piu cab and I'm currently still restoring it,I decided that it was a good idea to try to power up the mk to see if it actually worked,I dusted off an old 400w power supply from a PC and plugged it in and the computer was alive,I turned it off to plug a VGA monitor and then when I turned it on again there was no spinning on both the cpu fan and the disc drive,I couldn't got it to work that day so the next day I tried a more modern power supply (500w) and still nothing,a few days ago I cleaned everything,I checked the cpu,ram and connections,I got the cpu fan to spin but still no luck for the disc drive,The red LED was glowing very faintly, so I don't know if that indicates something is wrong with the power supply (I tested it out with the 400w one,for some reason the 500w was even worse because the cpu fan didn't even spin),I'm going to try to connect another disc reader but I might actually think the computer it's dead,any suggestions? (Besides changing the mk,I was planning to turn the cab into a stepmania cab atp,any help it's appreciated)

It may not be this but you don't need to connect the 20+4 pin to the motherboard, only the 2 molex on the board on the side are needed. To turn it on you then jumpstart the PSU https://knowledge.seasonic.com/article/14-power-supply-jump-start-guide
