hard drive & CD have no power after upgrade

by dellboy1 . Updated 19 years, 4 months ago

I recently installed a used Syntax SV266a mobo with Athlon cpu. All worked fine, installed Win XP no problems. Next day I rebooted and all I get is the cpu fan working. On screen it does the memory test & recognises the mobo & cpu size but will go no further as neither the HD, CD or floppy are working and appear to have no power either as there are no lights coming on.

I’ve tried swapping power cables around and have installed brand new IDE cables plus checked all connections etc.

Is there any possibility that the mobo could have fried the components?
