Default Replaces power supply P3BF

I just replaced the power supply in my old P3BF Asus motherboard

Now, when I start, I get an Hardware monitor found an error, press
DEL to enter setup and check monitor status.

In the voltages section, where it should be -5V it's -6.1V in red.

I tried another power supply and get the same error.

The computer runs fine however if I ignore this error but would
like to know why I get this.


Because the -5 line is unused, and thus unloaded.
