no that board will use a 20 pin psu just fine, make sure you are not using any of the 4 pins the sticker was/is covering
you do however, also have to use a seperate 4 pin connector on another place of the board
are you getting any powe at all (ie fans spinning up)

lol meant to make a thread eh?
Yah try pluggin in the 4-pin connector to your mobo, I believe it provides +5v, I have a system that has that plug and it runs w/out it plugged in but that doesn't mean yours will...

take the 20pin connector from your PSU and connect a paperclip from the green wire to any black wire and see if the power supply and your hd's etc. start... | |
