Take it apart and put it together again. Take your time and read directions.

Do the fans spins? Does the hard drive spin?
Check that you have inserted the 4 pin power plug.

bel, no, that's the X38T-DQ6, the X38-DQ6 is DDR2.

To Swordf1sh, if nothing spins or beeps or you don't even see little LED lights come up on the motherboard after you turn on the PSU (power suppy), then there might be a problem. If fans etc do spin up then there might be a gazillion areas that might be wrong, and you'll probably have to test every component separately.

nothing spins !
i've got the zalman CNPS9700 and it doesn't spin !
I've tested the Chieftech Netzteil and than the other two fans in the tower spins , because i thought that it might be a problem with the power ..!
But the Chieftech works !

checked all the power connectors are plugged into the motherboard?

 

[Swordf1sh]

Yes there are 3 power connectors ..!
And the 4 pin is optimized to a 8pin !

 

[cfvh600]

Try it with only one stick of RAM.

 

[Swordf1sh]

i've try .. and it doesn't work ..

 

[cfvh600]

maybe your motherboard is shorting somewhere against the case,preventing it from starting up,dunno.

 

[Swordf1sh]

this could be .. mh !
I will take it apart and put it together again ..!
Probably the screws of the CPU fan shorts against the case .. !

 

[Swordf1sh]

Could that be a reason?!

 

[cfvh600]

I don't know if that could be the reason. Take the motherboard out of the case, try starting it up on a piece of cardboard. The motherboard's box will work fine.

Make sure your case's power button is correctly hooked up to the pins on your motherboard. I had the same problem when I built my computer.
