Ok here it is. I just bought a 460w Enermax from a friend stationed out in japan (Marines). Anyways the psu is ony 2 months old and used very little.
Specs . Well i got it a few days ago and I decided to switch it out with my 300w PC&C i've been using as a back up for my back up rig (Abit KR7A). The psu is for my new dualie system that's en route. Anyways i swap out psu's and i see the yellow LED on the mobo indication the mobo is getting power. I hit the power switch and nothing
. I take it out and try the jumper trick . At first it would'nt start up, but after a few tries it finally fired up. Ok, back into the case it goes. Again yellow LED and hit power switch, again no dam go 
Yes the switch in the back is set to 110vAC. I snapped it back and forth a few times just to clear the connection.
Yes I have my power connectors it the right pins on the mobo.
Yes I took the psu out, jumper tricked it and she fired right up.
Yes I unplugged the ATX connector and made sure there are no bent pins.
Still no dam go. WTF am i missing here? Is this psu only used with japan's electricity??
My friend will gladly reimburse me without any hesitation, but this dang psu is possessed or what?
