Motherboard power supply modification battery voltage is low

Low +12V problem. Solved.

The -12v can be -10v or even -8v, it''s a very tiny power supply (usually under 1A) and it''s only used by the motherboard for the serial ports, and even then the serial port

I ask because, yes, 3V is WAY too low for a 12V line. So low, that I wouldn''t expect your computer be running if it was actually at that voltage. Check out this SU question and answers: How to

The System Battery Voltage is Low: 4 Methods You Can Use

The System battery voltage is low error message usually points to a problem with the CMOS battery. A quick fix would be to replace the battery, and it works in most cases.

motherboard

the power supply is cheaply made and substandard; the power supply is not correctly connected to mains (e.g. if it needs to be grounded but is connected via a 2-core

+5V Power Too Low (Even after changing PSU)

Some basic troubleshooting things to try would be to clean the 24-pin connector on the board (and the motherboard generally) with compressed air, re-seat all the connectors

BIOS shows 12V @ ~10.5

If you are experiencing low voltage suggest you clean and reseat both the PSU and MB interface connectors and see if that corrects the issue - If not RMA your PSU. NO

Modifying a Computer ATX Power Supply For Higher

To charge the 110Ah battery bank I built, I need a power supply that can provide at least 10A at 14.6V. Since I have many old ATX power supplies lying around and the 12V rails of these power supplies are more than capable

Low +12V problem. Solved.

A switching power supply constantly monitors the output voltage and adjusts the switching frequency to send fewer or more pulses through that transformer, to keep the

How to Fix the "System Battery Voltage Is Low" Error

The first solution to fix the "System battery voltage is low" error is reinserting or replacing your CMOS battery. Here are the steps: Step 1: Open the computer case and find

Why Is My Motherboard''s Battery Important? (and How To

It is important to replace the battery on your motherboard as soon as possible, as a dead motherboard battery can cause your system to fail completely. How Do I Replace

Weird voltage issues

My computer has developed a strange ailment: when I turn it on, the 5V power line from the PSU is very low, hovering at around 4.2V. This is intermittent however, sometimes it jumps back up

Should I be worry? +5V rail reported 4.80V

The voltage is a bit low, but the measurements shown in bios can be a bit inaccurate. Ideally you should get a multimeter and measure them yourself. If the usb device

Low 3.3V Rail [Resolved]

Just pushing the connector into the motherboard like you were inserting it without too much force corrects the voltage drop. Its a modular PSU so a replacement 24 pin

New PSU wont output 12v, only getting 9-10v from rail

If it''s low, either the PSU cannot support a 3 - 5 amp load, or there''s something wrong with your motherboard. If you get 12 volts, plug in the CPU power cable. This will

6 FAQs about [Motherboard power supply modification battery voltage is low]

Why is my MB BIOS low voltage?

P.S. The 5V rail tested ~5+ so that one seems okay. Thanks for any/all comments. If you are experiencing low voltage suggest you clean and reseat both the PSU and MB interface connectors and see if that corrects the issue - If not RMA your PSU. NO matter how much I criticize FanSpeed the app does report accurate Voltages in respect to your MB Bios.

Can a 5V power supply output a bad voltage?

The power supply should never output that voltage on its 5V line. The power supply is bad. If you are sure you are measuring it correctly, then you have a bad PSU. It should never allow that to happen. You should contact Corsair for an RMA. In the event of a current overload, the PSU is supposed to shut down rather than allow the voltage to sag.

Why is my PSU voltage below 5V?

It's better to be safe, since your PSU does not have all the voltage protections built in like in higher end PSUs. About your problem, below 5V is odd, but it also could be the BIOS showing it wrongly. Can you try to check your voltage too without your HDD enclosure and see if it changes?

What's wrong with my power supply?

So something's wrong with that power supply, either in the feedback mechanism or with its voltage referece. Be careful though to actually measure at the 12v connector, not the -12v wire in the 24 pin connector. The easiest would be to insert the meter probes in a molex (hdd) connector, the black and yellow wires in the plug.

Is a 12V power supply consuming a lot of power?

So without anything connected to -12v, nothing actively consuming power, the power supply is not "working hard" to keep the voltage very close to -12v. Be careful though to actually measure at the 12v connector, not the -12v wire in the 24 pin connector.

How does a switching power supply work?

A switching power supply constantly monitors the output voltage and adjusts the switching frequency to send fewer or more pulses through that transformer, to keep the voltage very close to 12v.
