Hello

I'm building a PC and yesterday i wanted to check if everything is working.
By working i mean just functioning, like if the fans spin, if everything seems ok etc.
The thing is that it doesn't (really) start up, i'm going to go over a quick list of the things i did.

1. Started up for a sec. and went back off immediately.
2. Checked if PSU was working with the paperclip trick, it was indeed working.
3. Retried, but still the same, after some time, it didn't even turn on at all.
4. Tried different PSU, turned on for a second again.
5. Paperclipped original PSU again with a fan connected, fan spins, everything seems fine.

Yet, nothing happens when i try to boot it.
I might add that there is 1 ram card connected atm, and no GPU, there is an integrated videocard on the motherboard though.

Thanks already.

Ok, got it to not shut down after a second, just reconnected the 8-pin for the CPU, probably wasn't in all the way.
Now everything is spinning but a red LED glows @ BIOS_A_LED1.
