Im not sure exactly what was the problem, but heres what I have so far, using the screwdriver method wasnt working, but I uninstalled the cpu cooler and put in a new one then tried again with the screw driver method and it worked, so it may have been a combination of broken power button amd...

Oh, yes I have reseated the 24 pin, ive even tested the whole system with a different psu. what bugs me about the situation is with both psu when I hit the power button, nothing even flinches, no fan turn for even a split second. If it was a loose part or cable id imagine that the fans would at...

Yes I have reseated the ram and everything, I have pretty much rebuilt the computer 3 times over

When I tested the psu, I connected the green line to a gnd, with a cable, the psu turdned on with some fans connected as a test. As far as reseting, how would I go about that?

Thanks for the help, would using lower volt leds in parralel allow me to connect directly to the mobo powerled pins? Or would it use up to many amps? (Led like these) http://m.ebay.com/itm/5-x-Pre-wired-6v-3mm-Blue-LEDs-Prewired-6-volt-DC-LED-Light-RC-Prop-Boat-4v-5v-/151052046871?nav=SEARCH

Sorry if I was unclear, I am connecting the led to the motherboard pins for the power on led, which im told is 5 to 6v, not the psu directly

I want to use this blue led ring for my power switch led, but its a 12v led strip. Ive read that the power led pins give off 5 to 6v. Would a 12v led ring work? Are there any hazards if so?Or would I be better off making a ring out of 6v led bulbs ? (Here is the 12v led ring)...

The momentary switch should be able to do the off switch function, but my main concern is the voltage, ive already bought one and broke it by teating it at 12v, what us the voltage that runs through the on switch pins?

I am trying to determine where to place my radiator for a flat pc. using a right angle adapter the gpu sits flat with its fan taking in air from bellow, so there will be clearence to take in air from the motherboard area. Only the cpu will be water cooled. my concern is if the heat of the gpu...
