Check that the 2x2 power connector is plugged in.
Make sure the power switch is connected to the
correct two pins on the PANEL connector.
The motherboard should be able to start with zero
components installed on the motherboard. A minimum
system is motherboard, power switch, power supply.
Plug amplified speakers into the green lineout connector.
When you press the power switch, the PSU fan should run,
and you'll hear an error message come from the amplified
speakers (left channel).
The easiest way to do this kind of testing, is with
the motherboard sitting on your table. Put a thick
telephone book under the motherboard for support.
Add components one at a time, remembering to unplug
the PSU whenever adding or removing components.
