PSU, switch, or motherboard?

Hi all,

I went to upgrade the memory in my PC. After putting in new memory stick, it wouldn't turn on. Checked all my connections, went back to original memory still nothing. Tried a psu from another pc. It worked but doesn't fit in my case. So, I bought a new psu. Now, fans turn on for about a second and everything shuts off. Any ideas? Thanks for your help.

Re: PSU, switch, or motherboard?

Please post links to the psu you purchased

Try the psu that was known working but did not fit in the case again as a test to see if the new psu is bad,(it does happen)

Please list your specs so we can evaluate if the new psu is up to the job.

Check all your connections again and reseat them
