Did you remove the screw, and reset the BIOS? Usually resetting the BIOS solves that non-booting issue.
Btw, be more careful next time 😛

There should be a jumper near where you plug in your hard drives, look on the motherboard for where clear or reset is, and move it, or just take off the jumper and power up the system, once its on, turn it back off and put the jumper back and it should be good to go.

RTFM....There's a lot of pin sets, check the manual to find the proper pin set

lol now that confuses me how do i do that?

 

[Tradesman1]

He's saying there may be jumpers on the back of the drive, if IDE more than likely if SATA maybe not....but check the manual, the reset should have a jumper on it

Found one and hooked it up, everything turned on put nothing on the monitor so I took out ram and put it back in, still nothing I have now taken out my CMOS battery and I'm gonna put it back in, in about 10 minutes
