Block Erupter Cube Setup Issue

[wmj]

I just purchased a Block Erupter Cube and a Corsair AX1200i.  I have the appropriate pins connected to simulate a motherboard.  Among the cables supplied with the AX1200i are 6+2 PCI-E cables.  I plugged two oft these cables into the power supply (the 8 pin end into cables #1 and #2 on the rear panel).  The 6-pin connector on the other end of each of these two cables is plugged into the block erupter cube.  When I start up the power supply, everything powers up for about 10 seconds, then there's an audible click from the block erupter cube and every thing shuts down.  The green "self-test" led is green for the time that everything is powered up, but turns red when everything shuts down. 

Any ideas on what's wrong?

Thanks!

Similar thing with me and I need Help

I had 2 Cubes on a Corsair CX750 and now that I have 3 cubes I moved to the Corsair AX1200i with the correct paper clip installed as I had done with the CX750.
This time however the Ax1200i starts up only for a couple of seconds then an Audiable clic followed by the red self-test light and everything is turned off. This happens with one, two or the 3 cubes attached. Any insight?

Thanks in advance.

I found a Solution!
I found a hint in another related topic and it's about a Paper clip switch and it WORKs!! I really can't understand why but it does. This is what I did:  As usual I would turn on the Ax1200i and seconds later an audible sound followed by the red self-test light and everything would be powered off.  Following the suggestion I took some pliers, removed the paper clip and re-inserted it and… Eureka!
I now have 3 overclocked cubes on my AX1200i working with a silence never before experienced.
Hope it helps you too
