This is very odd to me. I have been using a PC power supply to power the components inside my computer case without a fan attached to the power supply (I unplugged it from the power supply's connectors). This supply (with the fan removed) has worked for well over 5 years. I have replaced the motherboard 3 days ago because my last one was faulty. The computer has worked well for the last 3 days, until all of the sudden, everything except for the computer monitor shuts off without question. I then turned everything off. I checked the fuse by measuring the resistance of it without taking anything apart. It reads about 0.1 ohms. This must mean the fuse is ok.
I tried to go minimal (where only the motherboard is connected to the power supply), but I still get nothing. I also tried the power supply itself without connecting it to anything at all.
In all cases, what I heard when the power supply was on (in the faulty state) is a silent buzz, yet no motors are running.
Right, I assumed the PSU was at fault, but if the new mobo is fryed and it's not able to draw any current from the PSU, it might not even be at fault here...
