The trouble here is that the PWRGOOD line needs to be grounded, not set to
+5v.  The PWRGOOD line is on pin #14 on a standard ATX powersupply and the
line is usually green.  It needs to be grounded which can be accomplished
jumping it to any of the following pins 3,5,7,13,15,16, or 17.  These lines
are usually black.

The pins on the standard connector are numbered clockwise starting with pin
1 which is usually a yellow line.  It would be in the upper left corner if
you are looking at the end of the connector laying horizontally with the
clip down.

Hope that helps!
