So, I just attempted to build my own computer but when I had everything plugged in, the LED lights in the front were on, but it wouldn't turn on. I think it's a processor or motherboard issue, ideas?

Greetings,

Please try the following: disconnect everything from the computer, leave on:

1. motherboard
2. one ram module
3. processor with cooler installed
4. power supply unit, pleae do check the general 20-24pin rail connected to motherboard, as well as 4+4 cpu rail

Fire her up!

Well, not exactly the fix, but it caused me to reread all the manuals and such to reinstall everything, I also hate my life. I had the PowerLED (+ -) in the spot that power switch goes.... *facepalm* oh well, when all else fails put everything back together.
