The blinking light does indicate a problem with the PSU. If you have already installed a new PSU, have you confirmed that all the cable are securely attached? If everything looks fine that way, then it is probable that the motherboard is bad. The orange light means the PSU is receiving power but cannot distribute it.
One last thing to try. Unplug the PSU and the connectors to your hard drives, DVD drives, etc. Then remove the CMOS battery. Wait for about 5 minutes. Now press and hold the power button for 30 seconds. Reconnect everything and try powering up again. If you still have the same symptoms, it is probably the motherboard.

My PC just worked again .I don't think its mainboard issue ,I did several things like :
- Reset cmos jumper ( but doesnt work)
- Clean ram , cpu ,vga , etc
This actually work im using this method if my pc crash again
-replace old psu ( doesnt work also,still blinking orange light)
- Remove cmos battery
- Put back current psu turn off and turn on again its worked
One other is thing that my cpu overheat like 64 celcius (dell diagnostics bootc ) is this caused my pc to crash or PSU ?
