i bought a new pc with the following configuration http://pcpartpicker.com/p/3v24v
first i connected the motherboard with processor ,gpu,ram,psu and switched on the pc ...it worked fine !! then i switched off the system & monitor for connecting my cpu cooler ,hard disk ,ssd ,optical drive ,then i switched on the computer ,but the pc didnt work :( it dint switch on ...i fear that i made a wrong connection with the motherboard but i dint get any sparks or smoke or smell from the board !! .....if i have made a wrong connection on the motherboard,will it affect the other components on my Motherboard? if i connect the right wire, will the motherboard work finely? whether my motherboard will be affected due to the wrong connection.
 


Did you turn on the computer without any form or CPU cooler attached?

ya i turn on the computer without attaching the cpu cooler !! will it have affeced the motherboard or other components?
 


Nahh, this is incorrect. modern CPUs will throttle and shut off before damage is done. I doubt the CPU is damaged.

That said, NEVER turn on a computer without the CPU cooler.
