Hey guys, I am currently experiencing an issue with my DC-in power supply, particularly with what I assume is over-current protection kicking-in for no reason.

 

Yesterday after setting up my computer I attempted to turn it on, while none of the other hardware in my computer showed signs of receiving power the LED on my video controller flashed green as if about to power on, I tried to power on a second time and no response. I then tried booting up after connecting a standard ATX power supply and everything ran smoothly.

 

My assumption here is that something is triggering the over-current protection on my DC-in power supply. But if anyone can help me figure out what actually is wrong and how to fix it, that would be appreciated.

 

What i purchased appears to be a knock-off of the Realan LR1106-250W12VDC howevermine has Panasonic caps? I'm not sure what's going on here.

Picture of what I purchased, caps appear to be Panasonic ones according to some research, I cannot identify any other components

And here is the Realan board, I cannot identify any components on this one.

And here are pictures I took of the unit I received. It worked beautifully until it suddenly started behaving strangely. C16 is populated on mine while the Realan is not.

My procrastination is the bane of my existence.

I make games and stuff in my spare time.
