Newly built computer doesn’t turn on.

by ryant.leary . Updated 17 years, 5 months ago

Hi,

I’ve recently put together a new computer; as far as I know, everything is plugged in correctly, but it doesn’t work. The motherboard, processor, and RAM were all installed and verified as functional by the people at mwave.com. I plugged in my 2 x 12, 1 x 4, and 2 x 2 power cables, and I connected the front panel cables to the best of my ability — the power switch and reset switch cables are where they belong, and I believe the power LED and HD LED are properly connected also. The power LED light turns on, as does the light on the motherboard. I can find no reason why the computer shouldn’t start, but when I hit the front panel on/off switch, absolutely nothing happens. Does anyone know how I can locate the source of the problem? Thanks for your help.
