Hi,

I brought a new 500w Semi-Modular Seasonic PSU to install in my Lenovo E73 Tower

Despite using a special cable adapter, the PSU just won't start. I have no idea why this is occurring. The only thing I can confirm is that PC still works with original PSU.

Does anyone know the reason why and also whether or not there is a good CPU that will be compatible with my motherboard.

I am currently getting the PSU returned for a new one. But after doing some research, I found a YouTube video that suggests Lenovo PC have a different Pin-Layout to a standard ATX Motherboard?
