I know this is probably posted a lot, but the chances of finding the thread with the same combination of parts is slim to none. It's a pretty simple situation really, I bought a standard ATX 500w power supply to replace a Dell 255w psu. I had to buy an adapter so it would plug into the 20+4 pin "micro pwr" slot, but everything else fit just fine. However when I power it up, all I get is a high-pitched whine from the psu. Nothing else happens.
