Make sure the "clear CMOS" jumper is not in the clear position. If possible, test with another PSU just in case there's something subtly wrong with it.– David SchwartzCommented Jun 28, 2017 at 17:11

@DavidSchwartz Ah, should have mentioned that. I checked the clear CMOS jumper already and it's in the correct position.– MTSCommented Jun 28, 2017 at 17:16

2Does that PSU Tester generate fake demand too? A fuse (can) work at a very low demand, only to fail again at higher, depending on it's composition.– djsmiley2kStaysInsideCommented Jun 28, 2017 at 17:53

3I have had a PSU that seemed to generate the right voltages but would fail as soon as the load ramped up. The symptom I saw for that was the cooling fans would all "twitch" right as the power was turned on, but no other power signs.– techturtleCommented Jun 28, 2017 at 17:56

How to Tag
A tag is a keyword or label that categorizes your question with other, similar questions. Choose one or more (up to 5) tags that will help answerers to find and interpret your question.
- complete the sentence: my question is about...
- use tags that describe things or concepts that are essential, not incidental to your question
- favor using existing popular tags
- read the descriptions that appear below the tag
If your question is primarily about a topic for which you can't find a tag:
- combine multiple words into single-words with hyphens (e.g. windows-7), up to a maximum of 35 characters
- creating new tags is a privilege; if you can't yet create a tag you need, then post this question without it, then ask the community to create it for you
