I tried to instal some software and my pc crashed. I had to switch the power off at the PSU (Tagan 580 easycon). Now, it won't start up again. Absolutely nothing. My motherboard is a DFI lanparty ut DR200 Crossfire. I've reset the CMOS jumper, and the m'board power reset switches with no luck. I thought it must be the psu, so I took it out and plugged the ATX socket onto and old motherboard, which worked...
Not sure if there is some obvious setting on the m'board I'm missing, or if the PSU really is screwed, but it seems strange that it can power up the m'board on my old pc.
Any help gratefully received, as I've run out of ideas...

Thanks

Thanks Hartty. That's my guess as well, but it confused me when the ATX cable worked on the old pc. I suppose some other part of it could be shafted. Any recommendations for a replacement? Tagan were recommended, but I'm not convinced now...
 
Just spoke to a bloke at work, and he recons my motherboard could be knackered. He says it cant be the power supply, as the atx cable works on another m'board, but not on my my new one. How can I find out for sure?

Thanks
