I have purchased a new S3 and Corsair CX600 psu.  I set everything up and when I connected the PCI-E connectors to the S3 the psu quit working.
I was able to reset it and tested it and it ran o.k. but as soon as I connected it to the S3 it stopped again. I do not get any lights on the miner.
I am unable to connect to to the web setup presumably because the S3 is not getting any power.  I will appreciate any help/suggestions.  Thanks.

unplug it.  i don't think the corsair 600 is enough PSU to run the s3.  it may run for a bit, but eventually it will crobar it.  get at minimum a corsair 850tx to run it correctly.
