Storm Trooper 970 Extreme 3 issues

[ohellothere]

Got my new storm trooper today, including a OCZ 600 watt and a Asrock 970 Extreme3.
Been doing cable management for a few hours now, connecting everything etc.
But, there's this one issue.
When I press the fancy big black button on the top of the case, it doesn't power up.
Yes, the PSU switch is on.
No, I'm not sure if the system panel is connected right.
It says pwrbtn for one pin, then the one on the left is pwr led - and the other one is ground.
I'm not sure how to connect the whole fan stuff as I never worked with fan controllers before, I did connect all the fans and all those things.
Also, a quick response would be appreciated as it's getting quite late now

AMD Phenom II X6 1090T

Try to go thru this guide, yes it does cover how to wire up the front panel wires:

I know someone who for some reason had a problem with that exact same board not booting up until she installed the motherboard speaker (usually comes with the case) I don't know if that was a coincidence or what, but just to be safe make sure you have that installed.

Actually, connecting the mobo speaker was the first thing I did because I had problems with that on my other build.
When I turn on the power switch on the PSU my keyboard flashes the numpad, caps and scroll. The only thing I can think of is a short but that's very unlikely as I've spend more than a hour figuring out the standoffs and cables.

I have the exact same board and case and I am also having the same issues, although mine did power from time to time, but then it would just power the fans, was this ever resolved as I have had to revert to my old case.

I left the speaker wire out, should this be plugged in -

MY Build:

AMD Phenom 965 II 3.4GHz Quad black edition
