Re-install my Power Supply

Computer Forum Power Supplies and UPS's

Hi! I have an odd situation here. I took out my power supply from my old computer to test another computer and now I am trying to re-installl it and cant figure it out!!??

At this stage (see picture) I can only wire one cable and cannot determine how my cpu fan was cabled since I have no 4 pin (on computer) to match any of my wires.

At present I can turn the power supply on but nothing happens on my monitor(not responsive) and my processor fan does not go on, I can hear a few clicks coming from the drive that’s it
and I have to turn the computer off directly from the power supply unit and not from the computer itself?

Note that none of my Power cables have a 3 pin receptacle. I hope you can make sense about
what I am writing and that you can help! :oops:

I really suspect that you have Major…Major…problems.

Turning a computer on without the CPU fan working is exactly what it takes to build a boat anchor.

My CPU Fan has a connector on it that plugs into…a clearly marked receptacle…on the m/board…that says CPU…fan.

OK guys… I found what my problem was. I had a cable missing that was left on my other power box. The one that hooks to the processor.

Thank you for your trouble…:mad::mad:

It would be nice if all problems were that easy to fix.:slight_smile:
