Hey guys, i seem to be having difficulties starting the system. The LED lights come on, but when i push the start button nothing happens.

 

i have removed one 512 stick to see if it would work then and nothing. I have gone through the whole cmos clearing procedure earlier.

 

As far as what bios version im running, i have no idea.

 

Any ideas? suggestions?

I had a similar problem with my powersupply and it turned out that the the connectors weren't in correctly. I had a 20+4 pin together and I had the 4 pin in the wrong way.

 

I then went to my powersupply forums and a saw a pic of the wires installed. I copied the color coordination exactly i saw in the picture and I realized that the 4pin from the 24 was a little different (turned to the right)....

 

After adjusting the 4 pin, everything started running....

 

Hope this helps.
