Friends,

I am so happy. I just swapped out the PSU with another (older) Antec
Smart Power 500W PSU, and, voila, powers up instantly!

Now, may I offer a hearty thanks to Paul, Mike, Frank, and Tom for
their troubleshooting tips. I learned a heck of a lot from you guys on
this thread.

The only thing I don't understand is *why* the new PSU fails to work.

We can probably figure it out, if you post the exact make/model of the power
supply (that doesn't work) and the exact make/model of the mainboard. Like
I said before, I suspect the mainboard and PSU are not compatible. I'm glad
you finally got the system running, anyway. -Dave
