When I was installing these components, after I turned on the Corsair PSU 600 Watt I heard a "running sound" for a second then it shut off. the fan on the PSU never spinned or anything. So I tried the same components but on my older PSU and when I turned on the PSU it was running (fan spinning) but the PC would never boot. I came to conclude that the PSU fried my mobo, hard drive, and optical drive (and perhaps other components) So I am currently sending all the components back for replacements.
What could the problem have been?? Once I recive the components again I want to make sure the same thing doesn't happen.
