Question I have a working Corsair CX600M, but it doesn't work with older systems ?

[Ayatollah]

The PSU is known to be working but it doesn't work with LGA 1155 even tho everything is plugged in.
Is this because it's unsupported because its so new?

That PSU and every other green labelled unit from Corsair were known to be a dumpster fire, seriously. You should get rig of the unit.

Monitor:
include the age of the PSU apart from it's make and model. BIOS version for your motherboard at this moment of time.

I'll check the BIOS when I get home, how do i check the version, is it by going into F12 when it boots

If the CX 600M works -- the word "works" being used rather loosely given the poor quality -- it should have no specific problem with older machines. After all, it is an old PSU, last having been manufactured a decade ago. The quality's a problem, but it's not obvious that whatever your problem is (you haven't really described much), that the PSU is responsible for that.

I used the system with an older alpine 700w one, and it worked. When i unplugged the cx600m, i replugged in the alpine one and it worked as usual.
Apparently the CX600M is fully working

The problem is that the pc simply won't turn on in that system
