Hello

I've bought a board - Abit AX8 v2.0. It's in prime condition. Too bad that it doesn't work with all power supplies...

I've tested it with 2 power supplies.

ModeCom Feel 300W works with this board fine, but this power supply is not sufficient for my needs.

Colorsit 450W doesn't work with board. Only the POST is flashing, but I can't describe how it is flashing. Under the following link there's the code I've been receiving.

I've heard that a lot of people have such problem, I need a power supply capable of working with this board. Can anyone tell me what power supplies work with this board or at least what a power supply needs to work with this board?

I would try antec, corsair, seasonic, or fortron, especially if the colorslit is a light weight unit. Any decent ps will weigh 4-5 lbs.

What ATX standard does this board support? I've heard that people had problems similar to mine with ATX 2.00 PSUs, but 2.03 worked.
