Hi,
For the last two days I have been building myself a pc. I am by no means an expert, but this is the fourth build I have worked on, so I do have some experience. However, I encountered a problem today that I cannot figure out for the life of me. My system refuses to turn on. Now, I know there are hundreds of different problems that could contribute to this, so I was wondering if you guys could point me in the right direction as far as diagnosing the problem. Here is some information that might help: 1) the power button from the front of the case is in the correct spot. 2)All connections from power supply to motherboard are securely plunged in. 3)Switch on the back of the power supply is on. 4) Outlet is working. 5)When I plug the mouse in the leds come on. I also tried to jump it using a screwdriver which didn't work. I'm basically out of ideas, so if any of you have advice it would be greatly appreciated!
Here is what I'm running (or trying to)
Processor: i5-4609k
Mobo: ASRock z97 Extreme3
Case: NZXT Classic Series Source 210 Mid Tower ATX
Power supply: Corsair CX Series CX750M (750W)
Thanks,
Chase
