heres my take on your problem

the tester draws current (adds resistance)- the opus provides current so it works

your current pc and mobo dont draw enough current to get the opus into its operating range, and hence its pushing out wussy current. The opus is probably designed to only push out as much as is required, the mobo doesnt draw as much as is needed to kick the opus into doing something. there is a formula to explain what I am talking about - current draw but havent a clue how to explain it in other words

you need to think a little out of the box here, i would try your pc with the proper clock speed and all and add as many peripherals as you can.
