GT2560. Is that an error?

[dehm]

My GT 2560 board was broken and I bought a new one, but it didn't work. A friend of mine told me that the problem could be that the +5V and +24V and welded togehter (I don know about electronic issues).

The thing is that I am seeing the pictures of the web where I bought it (lightinthebox), and I can see those connectors welded, as you can see below (the 4th picture):

But in my old board and others I can see by internet those connectors are not welded, like that (2nd picture):

And I am wondering if the board I have bought is defective or it is just a sillyness and is not the origin of the board doesn't work

Thank you in advance and sorry about my poor english

You should ensure your Power supply unit works well
(Check the voltage of power output is 11---13V)

Thank you William. The power supply works fine. It send 5V and 12 V to each connectors of the board. But I wonder it those board is receiving 12 V instead 5 V because of the positive connections are welded.

Thank you again!
