[QUOTE="Morial, post: 1105112, member: 170494"] It seems so. I never tested the spare part system. The coworker of mine told me that it wasn't working, but he wasn't sure why. I tested voltages coming from the pinouts from the power supply (from the spare). I am getting 24.7 volts out of one of the pins with the system off, and with the power supply unhooked from the motherboard. I am not sure what this means, but I thought that only the 5v pins were supposed to deliver electricity with the system off. P2 Connector (excuse the crappy diagram) nob 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 From 9(blue wire) I am getting 24.7v, and from the 4 & 5 pins(green) I am getting 5v. This is while I am putting the black end to a grounded pin (black). Am I doing this right? I am not too experienced with using a DVM. Edit: Hrmm, perhaps that doesn't mean much. The original PS does this too. [/QUOTE]
