My pc wwont start. I dont have a case right now because the idiot on amazon hasnt shipped it.

So i put all the power in and everything installed, but when i short circuit the connection to the power button, nothing happens. No fans start spinning the ppowwer supply fan doesnt spin. Starting to depress me now. I have been trying for about 2 hours now. I have tried 2 different power sockets.

Any help would be great thanks

lol, you need case to power on your pc easily...

make sure you dont short circuit wrong pin on mobo. please double check which pin is your power pin from manual, it could be confusing to read

since your motherboard doesnt have a power button. i have to guess u cheaped out on the motherboard. so read your motherboard manual and find the correct pins, grab a paper clip or keys and try to jumper it.
