Ok, check all these things first and after that come back and let me know what you found. I'm guessing right off the bat that you might have forgotten to connect the processor 4 or 8 pin power connector that plugs in next to the processor but check this list first and then let me know. There are two power plugs that connect to the motherboard, in case you missed that.

And you have the cpu 8 pin connector plugged into the board next to the processor as well as the 24 pin by the edge? And are you sure you've got the system connectors on right that come from the front panel power button and reset? For sure? Heh. It's very easy to make a mistake with the tiny system pins.

He already tried the button on the motherboard,
It's not what you want to hear,but rebuild the whole pc and recheck every detail.Maybe even do a clear cmos.
You could even try the components outside the case first to see if they work there to rule a short circuit out.

Hmm. Kinda goes with what Vic 40 is saying, but make absolutely certain the 24 pin ATX and 8 pin cpu connectors are all the way down on the board. I've had these connectors look for all the world like they were in all the way before and then pulled them off and clipped them back in and BAM, good to go. It's worth trying at least after you try the RAM. Also, try the RAM individually in each slot. Could be a bad slot too.

Thanks I rebuilt it and I see the pc wont start because when I plug the molex cabel in. What does it doit's probaby from the built in fancontroller.
AlleLalle said:
and it goes from the chassi it self. I got a 6 pin connector from the powersupply and to a 4 pin fan connector on the motherboard, and the one from the chassi goes right in there.
You really lost me here,6pin to 4pin to .... what?
The molex from the chassis goes into one from the psu.
A 6pin to 4pin?

I mean, the molex from chassi needs something to put intoLike i said,attach this directly to one matching from the psu.
AlleLalle said:
so there is one cable that goes into the powersupply with a 6 pin connector. The other end is to the motherboard.
This one is probably for the gpu=pcie connector.
What goes to the motherboard? How many pins?

What do you mean by a "fan connector"?

Nothing from the psu should go directly to a fan connector!Actually, that's not true. On occasion some builds or builders I should say, they do install fans and/or pumps with their connectors plugged directly to the PSU without going through the board so they will have full unregulated voltage. It's quite common in fact and is the reason the sell adapters for doing so. I realize that was not the case in this situation and glad you solved the OP issue. Cheers to Vic 40 and the OP.

This still means no cables from the psu go directly onto the motherboard,they connect directly to the pump or fan,that's different.
The o.p. is talking about a fanconnector/header on the motherboard,not on a fan.
