Title: New Motherboard not working at all

Hi

I have just bought the above items to upgrade. Once installed there is no activity at all from the computer. I am pretty sure I have connected it all properly (as I upgrade my computer on a fairly reguilar basis). My existing motherboard has a light which at least shows that power is getting to it. I cannot see a light on this new motherboard hence I cannot be sure if the board is gettig power.

Hence before I sent the baord  back as faulty am I missing something?

Hi there,

Why do you suspect your motherboard, and not the power supply.
Did you measure the voltages out of the supply unit?
I would start there, and not with the mobo ;)

I'm just ask but do you have the front panel cables plugin right.

Yes dmdilks, he is important to check this point. F_Panel cable  on the motherboard.

Sometimes, because a cable is not a good place... system not boot or not functionnel.
