GS800 PSU powers on immediately, won't shut down

Hi, I just installed a new GS800 PSU in my existing system (Asus P5Qgreen MB, Q8200 CPU).

 

When I power up the PSU (switch on the back), the system immediately comes on (as though the case power switch has been pressed which it hasn't). Also, when I choose shutdown in Win 7, the OS goes through the shutdown, VGA goes dark, but all case fans and PSU are on still on.

 

I have tried disconnecting the case power switch lead from the MB to see if the switch was at fault. No change in behavior.

 

Anything else I can try or do? I am sure this question has been asked already been asked somewhere in the forums, but i couldn't find it after several searches (found one very terse post with a similar question that had no responses).

 

Is there a MM reading I can take on the pins to see if a voltage is present when it shouldn't be?

 

 

Thanks in advance for the support!

[uPDATE] - I swapped in an older PSU I had at home and it does NOT exhibit the problem behavior I describe above. Anything else to try before returning?
