If you're not using it with an ATX motherboard, why not just get an AT power supply instead and use that?

[jdbnsn]

yes they're perm connected.

But then why did it stay on when it was perm. connected to the ATX?

Somehow in my short memory span I forgot that you are not using it with a mobo. You may try separating the green and black and crossing them to power it on just to see if it makes a diff, although I don't think it will. Not sure dude.

because i already have a power supply and don't fee like buying a new one

It is because you have no load on the power supply, when I had mine I put a fan with LEDs connected to it. No load + Rigged PSU = Nothing, is the best to describe it. Here is a picture of the one I did, the red fan provided the load somehow.

ok......so if i give a load to it, it will work fine?

I think drece just nailed it.. give it a shot and see what happens.

Some PSUs require a minimum load, but I have powered up ATX ones with the green-black thing and they stayed on for me.
