I'm building a new PC and when I put it together outside of the case, on top of the mobo box, everything booted, I got a post beep and was able to enter the BIOS. However, when I put everything into the case and try to turn it on absolutely nothing happens. I'm confused as to what could be grounding it. I've pulled it in and out of the case a few times and it works every time I pull it out. Help!

Sounds like a short, make sure you have all the correct stand offs installed and the metal thing all your ports slide through on the motherboard (don't know what to call it...maybe motherboard shield?)

IF it not a grounding issue with the io shield hitting a USB port or the bottom of the mb. Look to see if your case where the CPU goes is raised up. Some mb trays with raised stamps hits the bottom of after market CPU coolers. If it shorting there the easy fix is glue on small piece of rubber to keep the mb from shorting out. If it not a mb tray short. Pull the case fans.
