I have a Micro ATX board (Acer V76M) that I want to fit in an ATX
case.
It works fine with a 145Watts Micro ATX case/PSU but do not power up
using the new ATX PSU.
I tried the same with a MS-6154 micro ATX board and the same happen.
The Micro ATX PSU that works do not carry the white wired -5Volts
while the new PSU does ! The new 300W PSU works fine with a standard
ATX MB !
Did anyone experienced such a problem ? It seems either the MB kill
sthe new PSU or the power consumption is too low (MB has video and
audio and a 466 Celeron II CPU).
Any idea ?

Snip the white wire and see what happens. (you can splice it after
anyways).

I have 3 different brands of m-ATX boards and all work with a regular
ATX PSU. Biostar, Chaintech, and ASUS.
