Hey guys,
This is my setup:
Psu: Antec Earthwatts 650watts
Motherboard: i-cafe IC780M-A2
cpu: AMD phenom in 960t
Gpu: Sapphire radeon 280x
8 gigs corsair vengeance ram
Wd hRd drive
It was setup and working fine for a long time. I got a new case, transfered all the parts over, and it was running fine. The front usb ports on my case were not working. So, I opened up my case to make sure everything was plugged in right. I noticed I had a three pronged plug on my mother board labeled usb power and thought it might help to plug in a three prong female chord from my psu. When I plugged my psu back in and turned it on, there was this weird clicking and the leds in the fans were flickering. I quickly turned my computer off by the switch on the psu.
Now, when I flip the switch on my psu to on, all the components in my computer turn on. But, nothing is displayed on my screen and I do not think the computer is actually running.
I tried removing all parts but the cpu and motherboard, and it still turns on when I flip the switch. I tried doing the paper clip test on my psu, and it worked fine.
Anybody got an idea of how to fix this? Or did I fry my motherboard?
Thanks in advance.
