Hello!
I have a problem with my Optiplex 745 power supply, model H275P-01.
I printed out the ATX 24 pin pinout and whats odd is when I short the pins to turn the unit on, its turns on ok.
I read the voltages out and I get what is in spec when not plugged in...
However, WHEN i plug in just the ATX aux 4 pin connector (for the chip extra power) the power supply works fine, but when I plug in the main
24 pin connector it stops....My questions:
Do you think the power supply needs recap or the motherboard is at fault here?
I opened the power supply but didn't see any leaky caps...
I thought it would be more obvious which caps are bad but it looks like i might just have to recap the whole supply!
What would cause the power supply to run fine when not plugged in, and give the right volts out, but not work when plugged in?
I assume its some bad caps in the supply itself but thought I would ask on here to see if any one has dealt with somethig like this before.
