Everything plugged in, everything seated correctly, etc. etc.

I have a nzxt phantom, i7 2600k, xfx 6870,corsair enthusiast and both vengence 4 gb ram cards are plugged in. i dont have all of the case stuff plugged in and i also put the mother board in off of the standoffs. but no fans even started.

And how did you try to turn this system on, you didn't try to press the button on the case did you.

 

[ATARI132]

oh and i dont have my hdd and my optical drive.

 

[ATARI132]

no i turned on the psu and i dont have the case attached to the power crap.

 

[maxinexus]

did you turn the switch into ON position at the back of your power supply?

 

[ATARI132]

yes

 

[gary1]

It's not supposed to turn on when you turn on the PSU..? You have to press the power button on the motherboard bud.

 

[ATARI132]

oh thank you thank you lord i thought fried the motherboard when i diddnt put it in the right way can you stay by if i have more questions

 

[ATARI132]

ok i have a four pin connector on my hdd and i dont have one that will fit from my psu am i missing something

Make sure you put in the right/all the standoffs. if you set it in there loose it could slide over and short out.

Some hard drives expect to use SATA power connectors. They are thin and flat. If you for whatever reason don't have any 4 pin MOLEX connectors, then you should have SATA power connectors definitely.

It is hard to really help you since its so hard to tell what parts you even have, but look for a flat black connector on the PSU and try to put it in there. That is the best i can tell you unless you make it a little easier on me here.
