Hi there,
I am having an issue with a new system that I am building. When I turn on the power, the fans come on for about 5 seconds, then shut off, then on again, and off, indefinately. Nothing shows on the display. The hardware specs are as follows:
Power supply: Corsair HX1000W
Motherboard: Asus P7H55-M (integrated video)
CPU: Intel Core i5 650
RAM: Mushkin Enhanced Silverline Stiletto 8GB 2X4GB PC3-10666 DDR3-1333 9-9-9-24 Dual Channel Memory Kit
To troubleshoot, I plugged an Antec Neo ECO 620C power supply into the motherboard and it did a POST, so I thought it was the HX1000W at fault. So then I plugged the HX1000W into a Dell Vostro, and also a system with a P35-DS3L motherboard, and it worked on both of them! However, on both of these systems, there is only a 4 pin EATX 12v connector. The P7H55-M has an 8-pin EATX 12v connector.
Is the HX1000W faulty? Is there anything else I can test? I have a voltmeter.
There is a video of what is happening here:

Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks!
