Hi Folks.
I just upgraded mypower supply from a Sunny Technologies ATX 350 to an Orion HP 585 HD and am having problems. It won't run. I did have it
running for about 5hrs,now nothing. I did remove the pin to reset the cmos and that did not work. I am puzzled with this one, sorry if i'm too vague. The fan just does a small jump but that is it.

I put the old CPU back in allowing me to get up and running and to this site.Here is the strange part, I ran my computer on my old power supply for about 30 minutes, then I disconnected the old power supply and connected the new power supply and it's working fine. It's almost as if once the computer is running for a bit then the new power supply will work. It happened again today. This is very strange. Any ideas?

Hmmm......its possible that the problem relies on the power supplies. Have you considered a good brand such as antec, thermaltake, and PC-PowerCooling?

I just bought the Orion a few days ago. I thought the Orion I bought just before this one was defective so I did exchange it. In short 2 brand new power units in less than a week. Could this brand really be the problem, it's running now but it won't start until I run my old power supply first. It's almost like the computer has to be running for sometime then I switch over to the new power supply and it works. What could be the problem?
