I cannot get my computer to turn on. At best, with the appropriate switch turned on behind the PSU the restart button will flash for an instant one time. Then nothing. No fans moving, everything is silent. I know theres only so many things it could be, but I can't figure it out alone because I don't know how. Please lend advice!! Need your help.
Just put together these:
motherboard: z77n-wifi gigabyte
PSU: CX600 corsair
case: bitfenix prodigy
graphics card: evga gtx 660sc
optical drive: asus dvd/cd
SSD: western digital 1tb
CPU: i5 3570k
cooler: Intel BXRTS2011LC
After completing the build I went to various troubleshoot lists and began taking things one by one. Here's what I've done so far, nothing made a difference yet:
Ensured nothing is partially plugged in, firmed up switches, checked all necessary switches, etc. Also plugged in 4pin ATV 12v
Tried turning on the computer from different outlets, with and without a monitor and keyboard involved.
Searched for loose screws, or anything touching the motherboard inappropriately.
Tried DVI and HDMI to monitor, though this seems irrelevant really since I can't get the machine to turn on whatsoever.
Tinkered with the power l.e.d, hdd l.e.d, power switch, and message switch buttons but to no avail. If I'm reading things right from the manual, and I believe I am, this isn't the problem. Although if it were the problem, how would I know?
Checked what other cords could be plugged in. I couldn't find any that I am aware of.
Any ideas are much needed and welcome. Thanks!
