Good afternoon everyone!
I recently built my own computer, no problems on the first night, posted first try. The next morning I tried to turn her on and got nothing. I will be specific; the case fans and PSU fans would light up and spin for a few seconds, but then turn off.
I have the following;
Thermaltake EVO Blue 650Watt PSU
Intel Core i5-2400 CPU
ASUS P8H67-M-LE-V3 DDR3 MOBO
Thermaltake V9 Case
Gigabyte 1GB 5770 PCI-E VGA Card
LG SATA Black DVD RW
Kingston HyperX Blue 4GB Kit
(2GBx2) DDR3 1600
WD 1.5TB Caviar Green HDD
After trying a differant PSU (same problem) and re-seating the motherboard / CPU as well as trying to run it out of the case, I got frustrated and short of time so called a local geek. The local geek told me that I had fried my mobo + original (shitty) HDD. So I went out and bought -
Artic Silver 5 Thermal Grease @$15.00
OCZ 120G Vertex II E Series SSD @$233.00
Asus P8P67 PRO L1155 P67 4x DDR3 SATA3 SATA2 eSATA RAID Firewire USB3. @$235.00
Western Digital 2TB SATA3 64M Black(WD2002FAEX) @$182.00
The local geek put it back together and now has the same problem.
I have not had the chance of looking at the new mobo installation (I will tonight) - but does anyone have any idea about what I could have done wrong? Take into consideration the computer did not move at all from the first time I started her to the second.
On the first P8H67 motherboard the green power LED would lite up to indicate the board is getting power, then the red LED next to the 16pin connecter next to the ram would light as I pressed the power button (and then the whole thing would shutoff)
I have read the steps and am confident that I have done nothing wrong - I get the strong feeling that this is a PSU issue. However due to the fact I have tried a differant PSU with the same results, I am probably wrong.
Any help would be great!
