I recently have purchased a new motherboard, processor and RAM (see below for spec), and i also have a PSU that is only one year old. I plugged it all in last night and the motherboard powers on perfectly, the CPU fan spins away as does the graphics card fan. However there seems to be no power going to the SATA power cables as my Blu Ray drive won't power up, and I cannot hear the hard drive engaging. Also there is nothing showing on the monitor?? Any ideas??

I really need the computer back up and running for this weekend if poss, so a quick reply would be much appreciated.

Many Thanks

Nick

Motherboard - ASUS MAXIMUS V GENE Intel Z77 Socket 1155
Processor - Intel Core i3 3.30GHz Socket LGA1155
Memory - Corsair XMS3 DDR3 1333 Mhz 4GB x 2
Graphics Card - Nvidia Geforce 8800

Hi There,
