what if you apply 7 volts? connector from the 12 and 5 volt lines...

if that works you may want to come up with a system that it starts up at 7 or 12 volts but once it starts up it automaticly or manualy switches to 5 volts.
my 2ยข worth
At 12V the same thing happened. Thats another reason I beleive the PS just cant handle the start up draw. The PS is "rated" at 25A@5V 10@12V also keep in mind this is a salvaged AT PS thats had its fair share of abuse.
