Now when I try and power it up the psu led blinks for a split second and then nothing happens, I am looking through all the guides, double checking the wires but don't seem to find this exact issue. I tested the psu with the paperclip method and it worked properly. I can't seem to figure out what the problem is.
Thanks for any input.
