I just built my first PC, plugged everything, and.... nothing!
After flipping the PSU switch on, and pressing the power button nothing happens. No fans (case fans, GPU, CPU, PSU), No beeps, no LEDs with the exception of a green LED on the MoBo saying it is receiving power.
My system specs are-
CPU--------------AMD Phenom II X4 965 Black 3.4GHz Quad-Core Processor
Motherboard---Asus M5A97 ATX AM3+ Motherboard
Memory---------Kingston Blu 8GB (2 x 4GB) DDR3-1600 Memory
Hard Drive-----Seagate Barracuda 1TB 3.5" 7200RPM Internal Hard Drive
Video Card-----Sapphire Radeon HD 6950 2GB Video Card
Case-------------Corsair 400R ATX Mid Tower Case
Power Supply--OCZ 750W ATX12V Power Supply
(Took the build off of reddit, here is a link with click-able links for the hardware)

I went through the "System won't boot" and "no video output" checklist"
1- Yes, several times
2- I have triple checked this
3- Yes
4- Yes
5- Yes- My only confusion with this is on the PSU end of the cables, there is a 6pin & 2pin connector, on the PSU there are two 8pin ports, and two 6pin ports, I connected the 6pin/2pin connections into the 8pin port on the PSU. No sure If you would split the 6/2pin connectors between the 8 and 6 pin ports. Wouldn't make much sense but eh.
6- Yes
7-Yes
8-Yes
9-Yes
10-Yes Double Checked this
11- No
12----
13-Yes
14-Yes
15-No
16-Yes
17- Not appear to come with a system speaker
18- Yes
19-Yes
20- Can't
21- Yes- moved jumper, and also removed battery
22- No integrated Card
23- Yes
I've taken the MoBo out several times, reassembling from scratch several times, made sure the mobo wasn't shorting against case stand-off screws.
I Breadboarded it without luck, only using the PSU, CPU, and GPU.
I have also tested the PSU, but unplugging all components from it, turning it off, unplugging, and shorting the 'green' and 'black' wires on the 24pin mobo power connector, the PSU lit up and turned on. It did not do this when components were connected.
From this my assumption is that it is O.K.
I also shorted the front panel 'Power SW' pins on the MoBo using a screw driver, which was also unresponsive.
I'm about to break out the multimeter and check the output on the PSU and see if they're within range.
I have no idea whats wrong or going on, but I have a feeling with my luck I got a DOA mobo.
Thanks for your help and time!
