Not booting

[thunder099]

Hello,
Just built my first computer
specs are
Motherboard Intel DH67DG
Processor Intel i3 2100 LGA1155
750w power supply winpower plus
Corsair XMS3 DDR3 4GB Ram

Put everything together, all connections are connected to the motherboard, only a light on the motherboard comes on but when I press the power button nothing actually happens.

Any help would be appreciated

did you get the power button wire plugged in properly? its pretty easy to mistake it for the other connectors

i have yet to hear about that psu company. i would have stuck with seasonic, corsair, xfx, and pc and power cooling

I got the power supply of the novatech website
Yes I did get the power button wire plugged in properly

either you have a dead Board or you managed to screw something up. IE not having everything plugged in, RE check all your wires make sure everything is plugged in where they should be. if not, you can do a simple test to see if its your powersupply thats dead

Thanks, I thought it may be a dead Board, could it be because I tried to turn it on when I had a 300w Power supply?

it should have worked unless the power supply had too much voltage ripple and fried a component

did your mobo come with a quickstart sheet/book? that or check the manual, it'll have a guide for what needs to be connected where as well as a troubleshooting section.

Done everything in the manual that I got with it, still didn't work, tried taking everything apart and reconnecting it a few times also and the same thing.

Take your Motherboard out of the Case and try connecting everything there

If you did the Power Supply test, did you add any components to it? like a hard drive, ODD, or a fan

ever since i failed on this one (took about 2 hrs to sus out), i ask everyone with a boot problem to check this - is the CMOS jumper present? rig wont boot without it

 

[TheBigTroll]

the CMOS is for the bios im pretty sure. nothing really to do with the boot.

First thing I did was go through this check-list and still nothing
