I just bought this new case.
Now i transfered all the old components into the new case but it wont boot.
I transfered them all back to my old case thinking i damaged something but that was not the case.
So i think i have not installed the screws correctly, but cant find what i did wrong, there are six screwholes on the motherboard.
In the case, the middle right has a standoff but only to put the board on it, not screw, and at the bottom left and right you can install 2 standoffs more

Something is shorting. Probable the middle right as there is no hole. Move them around until you get all matching holes, or just remove it.

It does have a hole there, the standoff came pre-installed in the case. Its also removable

Hi

Are you using the same psu?

Have you tried using a screwdriver or switch instead of the new cases switch to start up

Is any thing happening like fans running?
Or does motherboard seem dead in new case?

Regards

If the old case power button works, it seems you simply have the new power button connected incorrectly.

Does the computer boot as normal though, just no display?

Sounds like you have something connected incorrectly.
