PSU turns on but nothing else.

When I start up my system only the PSU fan turns on. My mouse also lights up though. No other fans turn on, CPU, GPU, Front, and back fans. My computer has had occasional problems with freezing before but it seemed to stop a while ago so I paid it no attention. It should also be noted that I left my computer on all night (It wasn't processing anything just powered on) but I have done this before and it never does anything like this.

If you need me to give you any more information I will try my best.

Specs:
Intel i5 4670
GTX 760
8 GB ddr3 ram
650 Watt PSU by corsair

Thanks in advance.

leaving your computer on overnight generally won't cause problems.

- Does your case have sufficient airflow where your computer would be cooled sufficiently?
- Are all of your cable connections from your PSU secure and correct?

Well I just picked you as the solution on accident.
Anyways! They should be correct. I have been using this computer for probably 4 months now every day. (I game on it etc.) I have only had a couple problems with it freezing. It hasn't been moved or anything since last night (when it was working fine) I think my airflow is fine, but the problem is the fans wont turn on (nor anything else.)

So it turned on... Everything is working now. But still there's this lingering issue that it actually did not want to turn on before. I didn't do anything to try and fix it. It was just left off for like a half hour. Any ideas?

I undid the solution.

That seems kind of mysterious to me, my best wild guess would be some component of yours overheated overnight, and your allowing to to cool down by leaving your computer off let it get to an acceptable temperature for your computer to start working again. Do you have at least an intake and exhaust fan for your computer?

Yes I do. Atleast I think I do, I will have to check back later when I get home from work. I have a Corsair 230T and it came with 3 fans, (One in back 2 in front)

Alright I just got home and I have 2 intakes and one exhaust. Although my airflow could be a bit better with the graphics card placement but I can't really do anything about what directions the fans go with that.

Umm, is there a way I can track the temperature of my components so if my computer crashes or does this again I can find out if that was the issue?
