Mohammed, does the fan in the PSU come on? Cheers Alex -----Original Message----- From: access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Mohammed Adeel Sent: 02 April 2011 13:35 To: access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [access-uk] Unable to boot new PC build Hi, I've bought a new motherboard and an AMD quad core processor. I was planning to put it into a old case and PSU I had lying around. I've put it into the case and wired it up but nothing happens when I press the power button. Could this happen if the PSU is unable to provide enough power? I don't know how many watts the PSU is rated to provide. Also, I am a bit confused about the cable that comes from the front of the case. I think it is an all in one cable for the power / reset buttons etc. Only half of it will fit onto the pins provided for it on the motherboard though. Any help would be appreciated.
