McCoyAz Posted February 2, 2012 Share Posted February 2, 2012 I just recently bought a TX650M to upgrade my HP (HPE-170f). Whenever I turn the PC on the fans start up, nothing on the monitor, then the computer boots down and restarts but still does nothing. I'm thinking it might be a motherboard or cpu issue. I've tried uninstalling the new psu and replugging everything back into to make sure everything was connected. I've also tried putting the old psu back in to make sure the PC boots with the old and it does. I've left the harddrive and DVD unplugged, still no post. Here are the specs for my PC: Motherboard: HP Pegatron IPMTB-TK Intel X58 SLI i7 Xeon 1366 mATX http://www.ebay.com/itm/HP-Pegatron-IPMTB-TK-Intel-X58-SLI-i7-Xeon-1366-mATX-/140683049753?pt=UK_Motherboards_CPUs&hash=item20c15cfb19#ht_6463wt_1139 CPU: Intel Core i7-920 PC Specs: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16883147092 Thanks for any help Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corsair Employee RAM GUY Posted February 3, 2012 Corsair Employee Share Posted February 3, 2012 This seem to be a problem with the PSU. are you able to test the PSU on a different computer? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McCoyAz Posted February 3, 2012 Author Share Posted February 3, 2012 Not until this weekend, need the time to head over to a friends house. The thing is, this is the 2nd PSU (same brand, same model) that I've put into the PC. The first one I returned. Unless, I'm incredibly unlucky and bought 2 bad PSUs...I'm starting to think it's something else. I may head over and buy another brand tomorrow and put that in, but I"d hate to do that.

Corsair Employee RAM GUY Posted February 3, 2012 Corsair Employee Share Posted February 3, 2012 What happens if you install the original PSU that came with your system? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McCoyAz Posted February 3, 2012 Author Share Posted February 3, 2012 The original PSU works fine. I've actually put it in a couple times so far, swapping out the new psu with the old one. I also tried using the old power supply cord with new psu and it still doesn't post. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joanzen Posted March 24, 2012 Share Posted March 24, 2012 Hey. I'm curious about this issue. I also purchased a TX650M to upgrade my HP (e9180t). I have the Pegatron IPMTB-TK motherboard and the i7-920 CPU. The behavior is very similar to what you reported - fans start up, nothing on the monitor, slight HD noise, and then it shuts down. I reinstalled my old PSU (the 460W that came with the machine) and everything works fine. FYI, I ran the paperclip test on the PSU and the fan powered up fine. What was your resolution?

Corsair Employee RAM GUY Posted March 27, 2012 Corsair Employee Share Posted March 27, 2012 I am sorry but that would suggest these systems may be using a different ATX specification especially if the OEM PSU that came with your system works. I am sorry but there is not a lot we can do with this, I would see if you can return the PSU and look for another option from the OEM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
