Angry dsatx issue

ok, my system has been working fine now for quite some time (since christmas)

got a msi mobo, 2800 semperon(on board video), 3 usb periferals(touchscreen, gps mouse, sound blaster audigy), sound blaster audigy nx powered by dsatx also, in addition to 1 40gb harddrive. that's all thats powered from the dsatx.

now the system will not boot at all, no LED activity.

i've checked all fuses, they are all fine(even the little 20 amp one on the dsatx)

i've plugged the mobo in inside the house to a "normal" power supply, boots fine.

i've checked voltage levels, and made sure acc is still working fine(all voltages are with the car running and are averaging 13.5 volts)

i've unhooked the powerswitch jumper, reversed it, jumpered the mobo manualy.

nothing, will absolutly not work at all.

(oh, yeah, i'm running 2 awg wire from the battery to a distro block in the trunk were the dsatx gets a 8ga wire, along with my 2 amps)

like i said, it has been working with no problems from the dsatx since around christmas. it worked in the morning on my way to work, but on the way home, it would not power up.

it is mounted in a clear lexan case, using tapped holes and mobo standoffs, has a 80 mm fan right above it.




anyhelp would be apreciated.
