Is there some trick to getting these Pico PSUs to power on the motherboard that I'm just not seeing? I have plugged the Pico PSU into the 24 pin connector on the mobo. Plugged the EPS pigtail into the CPU EPS connector on the mobo. Then plugged the 6 pin cable and barrel adapters together and plugged that into my server PSU's breakout board. I get a blue light on the Pico PSU so it appears to be getting power properly... but when I hit the power button on my rig, nothing happens. If I unplug the barrel adapter and plug it back in, I see the CPU fan spin for a second. This is the same behavior you will see if you are using a regular ATX PSU and you pull and re-plug the power cable on it. So it seems like everything should be connected properly... but it just won't power on. If I remove the Pico PSU, and plug in a spare ATX PSU to the same 24 pin/EPS connectors, everything powers up just fine. So, I know there is nothing else configured incorrectly. My server PSU powers my GPUS just fine, so I know the server PSU and breakout board works fine.

Also, Finsky... I sent you a couple of PMs about my previous order a few weeks ago. I know you have been recovering from your disaster, so I've been patiently waiting, but if you could at least acknowledge that you got the PMs and what the plan is for fulfilling that order, I'd be grateful.

I have just had the same issue.

I uplugged working rig to add some new cards, plugged it all back in and fan spun on MB for a second then nothing.
So after pulling my hair out I realized the Pico had gone!

Its outputting the 3v, but no 12v.

Hours wasted.

These Picos do not seem very robust.
