Wrong.. the power supply converts AC to DC and gives the desired wattage.. the MB controls peripherals, on/off, and fans.
I know that the mobo "reports back" to the power supply to keep it running. I'm just saying that I thought that it (the mobo) would still do that even without a working CPU, or even RAM. Wouldn't the system stay on, but beep error conditions? Just trying to rule out possible causes.
