I recently built a new computer, this is the most expensive computer I have ever built so I was really excited about putting it together. With the original motherboard the system never hit post. I RMA'd the board, a new one came and it still wouldn't post.... I brought the computer in to a local computer store, they told me I put it together fine and that it should work, that in their opinion I had another bad motherboard. So I returned the board, and got store credit from newegg. I ordered the ASUS replacement board and it finally worked. After a month of back and forth and RMA'd I finally had a working computer. For one week it was the fastest computer I ever had.
I went afk, I wasn't in a game or anything, just regular windows 7, when I came back the computer was off, and I have since never been able to turn it back on. Nothing happens when I hit the power button. The fans don't move, it doesn't try to post, nothing. I then bought a second power supply outright thinking the 750 watts just wasn't enough..... I bought the new 1000 watt PSU, and still the same. The computer doesn't even try to boot, fans don't spin at all. I'm at my wits end and I am broke. I have spent about 400 dollars just trying to get it to work. This is not counting the original 1200+ I spent on all the parts. Not sure really what to do anymore... anybody have any ideas as to why the heck this thing won't even try to boot?
