We have no reason to believe the new power supply is even working.
We cannot know that until we have voltage numbers from purple, orange,
red, and yellow wire from power supply to motherboard. Based upon
what was posted, we have only speculation that the original supply was
defective. Yes, a bad supply can make everything else work strange.
But the problem could be due to any other part of the power supply
'system'.

First establish that the power supply system is working by using
minimal information from those four wires. Only then can we move on
to other suspects. Without those numbers, we have no idea what is
causing those problems AND may be chasing ghosts.
