My first ever PC build is done!!! And it's beautiful!
Now I know why I attempted this :D

Four days of work has paid off! Although I'll have to go back in and do some cable routing, because it is shocking. Everything works though and it's just beautiful.

If anyone can tell me why my HDD activity light doesn't work, that would be great, not a big deal but still













Will probably get better pictures later, but they'll do for now.

Anyone know how I can get my keyboard hotkeys and HDD light to work?
 
Depends on the keyboard you have - poor noob that you are, you probably got suckered into buying a "gaming" keyboard, huh.

If the software that comes with the keyboard doesn't work, autohotkey is far more powerful, it just takes a little longer to set up.

As for the HDD activity light, it might just not be plugged into the motherboard, or is plugged in backwards.

Thanks, I dude, I had it up the wrong way

EDIT: One thing I noticed, when I was installing, one or two of the case cables look like the insulation plastic got a little scraped off. It's not scraped to the cable itself, but it's concerning me a little. A bit of electrical tape should fix this though? (You can't even see where I'm talking about :p)
