Power Supply Connection problem?

[Intoxicateduchi]

I've bought myself a power supply 750w name: Win POWER PLUS
OCUK Swift 750W Silent Power Supply [PSU-7022]

I've installed it and it has turned on, but the lights at the front go on and off again. The moniter does not seem to respond. I'm pretty sure I need to connect the 4 pin cable on the motherboard, but the power supply only seems to have 6 pins minimal. Is there a converter i can buy? or must i completely buy a new power supply?

Old Power Supply: Fujitsu siemens S26113-E517-V50

Is the PSU too advanced for the motherboard??

-Thanks in advance

I would advise getting a new PSU because that one is just downright junk.
What are your system specs?

Same suggestion as Markgg88.

Which PSU would you reccomend I have a budget of £35, All i know at the moment is Its a fujitsu siemens that came with only 1gb of ram. Factory made ofc. I have no power supply to check. There is no stickers on it besides the windows XP sticker and an AMD athalon 64x2

[Markgg88]

Sorry, you'll never find a decent PSU for anything less than £70. We only recommend good quality PSU's.

Well regardless, is there such thing as a 6-pin to 4 pin converter? if so, where would i be able to find one?

Look at the 6 pin wires. One is probably a 4+2 (Black & Yellow wires) and can be separated.
Edit: The Description of the PSU in the link you supplied says: 4 Pin + 12V Power Connector X 1

- Universal 20+4 Pin Main ATX Power Connector X 1
- 4 Pin + 12V Power Connector X 1

Are you sure you're not trying to jam your PCIx power into your board?

[Intoxicateduchi]

there is no 4 pin + 12V Power Connector. Seems like some False Description.

And no, there is no separatable 4+6 wire...

[KD5EEJ350]

Is there an 8pin plug?

[KD5EEJ350]

8-PIN


4-PIN


It is possible to use the 8-PIN in a 4-PIN but you have to pay attention to what you are doing.

It's just four 12v wires and 4 grounds instead of 2 each.

Can you post a pic of the connections on your PSU?
If there is not a 4 pin or separable connectors you need to get a different PSU.

Make sure that 8 pin is not a 4+4 but with only 1 sata power connector I find it hard to believe it has a eatx 8 pin and not atx 4 pin plug.
