    ds-atx problem

    i have a ds-atx psu running a k8ngm-v motherboard with a 1.8ghz amd sempron. when i start my car the led turns on and the processor fans spins for about ten seconds and then stops the psu led remains on. i never get a video signal just the keyboard lights stay on. when i turn off the car the led blinks twice and turns off. i have a switch installed currently so i can power up the computer with this switch. but there is no shutdown delay. the power supply just turns off. is it possible that this is because i am using a 20pin to 24pin adapter for the motherboard. i cannot think of anything else. any suggestions???

    Did you turn P2 to its lowest setting of 10V (fully counter clockwise)?

    I had the same problem where the cpu fan would turn on for about 5 seconds and shut off. The DSATX would still stay on but would not output any voltages.

    This is how I fixed it:
    You can also try reversing the 2-pin header on the motherboard switch (on JP1).

    and still the same. here are the brainstem readings just in case

    Yaa basically that says that the computer is not on. Does it work if you use the power switch?

    Do you have the relay hooked up to Vin and the G1 pin?

    Every time you hit the @ key it should send a pulse so you can test your relay. Is your relay clicking?
