30-60 second delay from pressing power = dieing PSU?

[Korgun]

My brother's shuttle PSU died around 4-6 months ago so I put in the PSU make and model on ebay and got a replacement for him, the new one just started getting a delay from when you press power to when the machine boots up, between 30-60 seconds.

I connected his shuttle to my PC's PSU and everything boots up as it should.

Time to order a new PSU for him, or just let him use it as it is?

No.

Remember: The power switch is connected to the motherboard.

The power supply doesn't know you hit that switch until the motherboard tells it.
