I tried this mod on one of my xbox 360s.

But when I try turn on the xbox, nothing happens. Shouldn't the fan in the psu at least spin to show its working? Do I need to bridge anything to turn it on? I tried that standby wire, but that didn't help.
turning on the psu?

You need to bridge the green wire to ground.

Re: turning on the psu?
not always the green wire, sometimes its blue. it needs to be bridged to ground. To check if its working without doing this stick a volt meter between 5vSB and ground, if its around 5 volts then the psu is at least getting power.
As for the power on lead, it needs to be kept bridged so it wouldnt be a bad idea to put a switch between the power on wire and a spare ground lead ( any black wire from the psu).
Its pin 14, see link for identifying pins

Also, make sure your power supply can give at least an amp on the 5 volt line and at least 19 amps on the 12 v line (for the most power hungry revision of the xbox.)
