ok...this one is weird
it is a standard PSU in a 486 Compaq that i just dug up outta my dads
storage...
it will start up only if i disconnect it from everything...
when i connect it to the motherboard and only the motherboard then it will
start for a few seconds, then die...and even if i disconnect everything from
it after that it won't start back up...
before i go through and test every connection does anyone have any
suggestions as to what is wrong with this thing?

thanks,
Robert Cobbins
