purchased a new system, installation was 100 percent problem free but start up, or lack there of, has been 100 percent problematic.
push the power button, and absolutely no power at all. its not like its turning on then immediately shutting off, nothing happens at all when i hit the power button.
yesterday, it would flash a bit of light, and the keyboard would light up for a sec but today absolutely nothing.
ive narrowed it down to the mostly likely culprits and i think its either mobo or psu, but im going with the psu as the box was badly damaged on delivery. I kno its a solid psu, but nothing is good when its been mishandled and abused.
