    Why not just replace the power supply? They are cheap usually and they do fail.  :-\

    Additionally making a power supply run with nothing loading it down is not a true test of health. Loading down a power supply with a power supply tester or in a healthy computer is the true test.

    People seem to think jumpering 2 pins on a PSU is a test...it proves nothing zero nada...

    The green wire is the power switch sensor. it's connected to 5V via a pull-up resistor.

    The idea is you jumper that green wire to a ground wire and it is basically like hitting the power switch.

    Blue isn't Ground. it's -12V.
