Your filling issue may have had nothing to do with your power supply. Sometimes it takes a while to get the water flowing through the system, especially when the loop isn't closed off yet. It's still good to use a 2nd psu that isn't powering the PC for the initial filling though, as it keeps your system off, drastically reducing the risk if you happen to leak or spill water on your components. It also lets you cycle the pump more easily, which is helpful when you're trying to get things flowing. Regardless, I'm glad you were able to get everything up and running!
Deionized water is neat, but you really only need to be using distilled water with phn nuke added to prevent any bio growth or corrosion. Deionized is total overkill.
