So the power supply fan is turning (continuously).

All that proves is that part of the power supply is working.
Therefore, both the power supply and motherboard are still under suspicion.


What Now?

You will need a multimeter, and the knowledge of how to use it to make DC voltage measurements.

Whilst plugs P8 and P9 are still plugged into the motherboard, make the following voltage measurements:

P9
4/5/6
3
Red
White
+5 volts
-5 volts
 Expected to be something over + 4.8 volts   (source: IBM manual)
 Expected to be something over - 4.5 volts   (source: IBM manual)
P8
4
3
1
Blue
Yellow
Orange
-12 volts
+12 volts
POWER GOOD
 Expected to be something over - 10.8 volts   (source: IBM manual)
 Expected to be something over + 11.5 volts   (source: IBM manual)
 Expected to be something over + 2.4 volts   (source: IBM manual)
