I've recently built a new computer. After putting all the parts together it wont bootup, I think its from faulty wiring, or a broken piece of hardware. Here are the main specs:
CPU: i7 4770
GPU: GTX 660
PSU: Corsair CX 750
RAM: Corsair Vengeance 16gb
Motherboard: Z87-G43 MSI
Here are some images of the wiring, if you need more clear images, or additional information please let me know, and thank you for your help

Did you plug in the front panels cables to the motherboard? You will need to do that to use the front panels at all including the power button.Sorry, I dont know what the front panels are. I know I plugged in the cables like 'HDD LED', 'POWE SW', ect.
Refers to the manuals from both the case and the motherboard.
Front panels cables are the cables that connect to the USB, the power button and the reset button as well as the audio. The cables should be coming somewhere from the case.

For these front panel cables, they have a positive and negative side (black is usually negative). Refer to your mobo manual to make sure that they are plugged in to the proper pins (especially the power one).

Hi, did you see the images, I think those are the ones I plugged in.

I've confirmed that they're in the correct position. Although, it still doesn't turn on? Could it be the PSU?

Honestly, I'd unplug everything, and I do mean everything, and start all over. You have some nice components, and could have a really nice looking build, like something a professional would do/have. Instead, you have a disaster waiting to happen, a veritable rats nest. You have a mobo power cord stretched across the cpu fan, move it. thread it from the psu, under the mobo at the bottom, then up inside the back-side panel behind the mobo. You have a case with room enough behind the motherboard for all sorts of wires, use it. Straighten out and untangle the wires coming from the psu, you're killing length there. Clean it up, and make damned sure everything is seated right. The 20+4 pin especially can be a real pain to get seated down right at times, as can the aux mobo 4/8 pin. Do this 1 cord at a time, take your time, do it right! Also make sure you have the correct polarity on any of the small front panel connectors.
And why does it look like you plugged a USB3 cord into a USB2 header?

There are 2 CPU cords that look very much alike. 1 is a 4/8 split pin connector, 1 is a 6/8 pin connector. There are at least 2 of the 6/8, they are for Gpu's and the 4/8 is for the mobo.
See the big 20 pin header right below the main 20/4 motherboard power connector? That's where that big blue USB connector goes.

And you are positive you have the right 4/8 pin atx power cord going to the top of the mobo and not a 6/8 pin PCIe cord?Ok, i've reassembled my system here are some high quality images with my better camera so you can see if I did everything right. Thanks for the support aswell

Muuuuuch better. See, that wasn't that hard, knew you could do it. But I swear, it still looks like you have that big blue cord on a USB2 header, when it looks to be a USB3.So, does the pc turn on now?
The power supply was either broken, or incomatiple, becuase I switched to my 430w, and put in my weaker graphics card, and it turned on. Although I ran into this problem, I can also run in safe mode, but when I do Safe mode with networking, the internet still doesn't work. Do I need to update the drivers or something like that? Thanks again for your support

Well, you can check the PSU with this little guide. It may look a bit scary but its 100% safe. Give it a try and see if your PSU fires up.

I figured out that the PSU was broken, so I switched to a 430w, any way it works now. But I get an error message (Blue Screen) I posted a image of what the blue screen says in my previous comment.

Well, the error seems to be an issue with AMD Overdrive (aoddriver2.sys). If you can get into Safe Mode and uninstall this, it may solve the error problem. You should still check that PSU to fire up though. You could have a perfectly good PSU there which could stray us from that fault (or for sure provide the solution to the problem).

I bought this computer from CyberPowerPC the specs I got were
FX 6300
Radeon 7770
ect.
But I decided to upgrade my system to:
i7 4770
GTX 770
As I said, I cant upgrade to the 770 because I only got a 430w, So I'm currently using the radeon.
So how do I uninstall AODDriver.sys? Type it in the windows search thing in safe mode?

Yeah, you can go to Control Panel, then Add/Remove Programs, and uninstall AMD Overdrive. If you really want this for overclocking later (usually don't do software in my opinion), you can try to reinstall once you get to a working desktop.One last question, I got it working and all which is awesome, thanks! But I cant connect to internet, (Im hooked up though Ethernet) but it just has a big X through the icon.

Cool. I would like to know if that PSU really powers up. I have a feeling that it will.
You probably need to install the network drivers that came on the motherboard disc.Yeah man, I will start testing out that PSU right after I get this computer up and running
Anyway thank you so much for everything!
