Hello,

My system specs:
Mobo: Asus h81i-plus (mitx)
Cpu: Intel i3-4160
Psu: CX430
Case: Bitfenix prodigy m
Ram:HyperX Fury Red Series 8GB (2 x 4GB) DDR3 SDRAM 1866
HDD: 1 TB WD black caviar.

I had the mobo, case, and ram left over from a system I built 3 years ago (sadly gone now) and decided use it for a new build.So I bought a new psu and cpu.

The problem: I turn on the pc and
- Keyboard and mouse don't work in any usb slot but I can charge my phone with a USB.
- Monitor is unresponsive saying that there is no signal coming from the pc.

Note:
- When I turn on the pc the cpu fans take 3 seconds to start spinning but when it does start it spins really fast for about 3 seconds and then goes to normal speed.
- when I plug in a USB flash drive it lights up for a split second and then quickly goes dark.

I would really appreciate it if anyone could help me out with this.


 
Solution
Have you followed through this guide while building your PC? Have you also tried breadboarding your system to see if the system on bare minimum powers up? You may want to try and use a different PSU if the breadboarding path is a failure.
