Hi, I realize that this is an old post, but the power supply is a 12 volt 1 amp with a barrel connector. These can be found as generics or multi-application power supplies right here on Amazon or on eBay. Hope that helps! Best2u, Max4urmoney

Most powersupplys have a 4 pin molex I'm not sure what 3 pin connection you have on your power supply. I left the fan on low (as a case fan) because I used it in a low power system

Apparently it is with the connectors. I had a person look at it and it has been working ever since but I don't know what he did to make it work. Keep trying to insert it and maybe it will fix itself.

If i remember correctly from when I build it, it has 1 8 pin and 1 6+2 connector..go to www.pcpartpicker.com and put all of the information in and it will tell you if everything is compatible and if you have enough power. It's what I used to buy parts for my computer and I could not be any happier.

Hello, As it shows on the side of the radio the power supply should be a 4.5volt DC 200ma wall wort power supply and the CENTER pin is -negative polarity. I would suggest that you take the radio to a local store to find the correct plug that goes into the radio. I am only using the radio with batteries with my unit. Good luck, Ed.

The product should power on immediately upon receiving power. In the worst case, you'll have to turn it on with the included board once, and then it should behave the way you want it. I built this into a case of mine not too long ago and needed this behavior.

I agree with the previous response. If you know the outlet is good and its fully plugged in and you push the on button and nothing happens most likely the power supply in the unit is bad. Time to return it.....

I had some problems too, until I connected the power cable to the adapter and it worked for me after that. It seemed that if you didn't use the adapter with the power cable and turned it on, it wouldn't work. Hope this would work for you.

I am not sure how it works? It looks like to me it has to be hooked into a power source somehow. I could use some help here as well.How do you hook it up?

Its short. Just remembering my install if you have to access power more than one foot away from the device you wish to use it on you will need to add length to the power supply end rather than the output side. I used it to power a GPS on a scooter with the need for only about 2 feet and it was too short as it was shipped. I simply added supply side wire. It then worked fine. Good luck.

It is plug and play. You don't need a power supply. Plug it in. And it should set up.

Sorry, just saw your question. Yeah I bought this thing to make use of an older CPU, RAM, and graphics card that i had sittin around. Bought this and a case and i had a decent PC for cheap haha. You will need a 24pin +4pin connector for this motherboard. I used the 400w Diablotek ATX power supply and it and the motherboard have worked flawlessly for over a year now and the PSU even has a 3 year warranty. Really hoped I helped.

Just plug it in and flip the switch, should be all it takes, if it isn't working Amazon and Corsair both have great customer service (in my experience) so it can be replaced no problem. Do note that if it isn't hooked up to a motherboard or shorted (at your own risk) it won't actually put out power due to a connection detecting pin. It is possible to short said pin and plug in a fan or something to test it but I wouldn't necessarily suggest that.

Philip is correct. Your need an additional 6 pin outlet from your power supply

Yes, you need six pin power. Otherwise it will just lock up. I had that problem even though I had a six pin power plug in my old PSU but it was unable to meet the amperage requirement for this card on the 12V rail

For those that purchased an ac adapter...where on the unit does it connect? I can't seem to find a plug connector anywhere. Also, what model adapter did you purchase? This unit would be perfect IF I can power it thru an outlet. Thank you very much! - Brian
