*Problem solved - accidentally plugged Power SW into the wrong place*
So, it's worth first mentioning that I don't understand most technical terms/jargon so please be patient and explain answers as simply as possible.
Basically, I was replacing the cpu fan/cooling system from my stock AMD fan to a Cryorig H7. This was my first time undergoing the procedure so I took great caution. I spent a lot of money on things such as 99% Isopropyl (not easy to get in my country) as well as a brand new case, etc. etc.
I did the procedure without much difficulty (I didn't remove the CPU itself so it's worth noting that the issue won't be anything to do with that.
After the procedure I plugged everything back in (yes, I plugged the CPU fan into the 4 pin plug) and went to turn it on...
Nothing.
Absolutely nothing.
It's worth noting that when moving the motherboard slightly, sometimes the GPU would light up, cpu fan would spin and USB port light would turn on as though it were all about to start - but all of this would last half a second at most.
I would preferably like to get this fixed as soon as possible. I can't really afford specialist help (I'm an unemployed student) and have already spent too much of my budget on the parts for this procedure. This PC is hugely important for me.
My specs:
AMD fx 8320 CPU
MSI Nvidia GTX 970
2x8GB RAM
2tb HDD
750w PSU
Cryorig H7 cooling fan
Thank you for your time.
