Hi, so I finished bulding my friends computer yesterday when we plugged it in and hit power, nothing happened. We waited a few minutes and tried again, and then it powered up but it did not POST, basically no video. So we turned it on and off a couple of times and nothing happened. Then I tried pressing the Mem OK button and i think it beeped or something, and after that the computer has not turned on.

Today, my friend came and pointed out i did not connect the atx power to the cpu on the mobo and I thought that was it, but still, nothing happens when i try to power up. I know, noob mistake.

Here is the computers specs:

Motherboard: Asus P8P67 LE
PSU: 700W OCZ MODx Stream-Pro
HSU: Cool Master
CPU: I69-2500k Intel core i5 unclocked LGA1155

Ram is patriot ram SECTOR 7

so far, i took everything out kept the mobo, psu, hsu, and the cpu tried to power it and nothing. there is a red light by the words epu and the tpu switch, and the motherboard light is green. Also the intel P67 on the motherboard is super hot, and the computer is just plugged in, I almost burned myself.

So now I do not know what to do, I am going to try to boot my psu using that green cable thing I saw, then remove the cpu and try to put it back in for damages, but so far no luck.


To speed things up I was hoping if you can, you can just Skype me

my skype ID is mandeep2150, I will try to add as many people as I can and I can webcam this although there is no point to that.
