I just finished building my first computer, but I've hit a wall. I plugged it in for the first start up, and the standby LED on the PSU lights up, and the power button on the motherboard lights up, but nothing turns on, using power button on case or motherboard.
As I understand it, the standby means nothing more than the computer is receiving 5 volts of power. Also, the light on the motherboard is red, and I've been unable to find anything indicating what that means, although since it's red I'm assuming bad news.
The system was a setup off of Newegg, with only one addition being a graphics card.
