I've just moved over my PC to a new case, cm n200 and it won't post.
I see the motherboard led on but nothing happens when I press the power button no fans no nothing can't hear a thing.
The PC was working just fine too in my old case, antec 300 old.

The PC was built in January of this year and what I kept from my older build was the antec case, corsair tx 750 PSU, and 2 500gb HDD all of which have been working fine.

Current parts:
Mobo: Asus h87m-plus
CPU: i5 4570
GPU: MSI gtx 760 hawk
Ram: Kingston hyper x 2x4gb
Heatsink: Hyper 212 evo

When disassembling the PC to move to the n200 I did not remove the ram or heatsink.

I went through the no post guide checking the cabling and standoffs. About the standoffs if I got the 6 screws in place and clearly saw the standoff before screwing them down means there shouldn't be a problem there right?

I don't have a spare PSU or multimeter and am not sure what to do to check if there might be something wrong with it. I have a feeling that my problem would be there...

Almost certainly something is not connected correctly.

It was working
You took it apart
You put it back together
Now it doesn't work.

Start with the simple things, and check each and every connection. Not just look at them, touch and verify.
 
take a look make sure the vendor wired the power and reset switches right and the wires are on the switches. also check that you put the case header cables on the right spots. one thing also to check is the rear io shield make sure it not shorting out the mb.

Is it possible that it is not posting because I have my boot drive plugged into the wrong sata port?
I'm thinking back and the only different things I did with the case was plug in the chassis fans into the mobo instead of to the psu and possibly mixed up the sata ports.
I'm not home right now and won't be for about 11 hours so I can't try anything right now.
