Good idea Connie I had that happen along time ago & it was the PSU power good line. Heres part of an old post I made.

I know for sure that power good is just that.
The power supply tells the MoBo that the power is good by feeding +5
volts power to the MoBo thru the power good connector after all the
voltages (at least 5 volts) are up & stable.

All I did to fix my old PSU was move regular +5 volt line to the MoBo P/G line & the system ran fine & never broke down again. Only with a brand new good setup like that I would recommend a new & better PSU because the system is to young. If its bypassed & the power does go bad then it would cook every part in that case.

Its still weird that he backed down the power use & blew something out. The math just aint working out here.
