I upgraded my system about 3 weeks ago, new CPU, mobo, memory, and SSD. Parts in my signature. Put all that into an old case with an old power supply.

It's been working great, no issues. I just got a new power supply and case because I wanted to be safe since the psu was getting old. Transfered everything over this morning, hit the power button, it won't boot. I'm getting a solid yellow DRAM light on the motherboard. Fans and lights all come on.

I've taken out the memory, made sure it was all clean, and put it back. Took out and replaced the CPU to make sure nothing had moved there. Unplugged and replugged all the cables from the psu. Now I'm not sure where to go from here.

Holy crap, I feel so stupid right now because I just figured it out.

It's my first modular power supply, and I somehow had the cpu cable backwards, it looked like it was plugged into the psu but must not have been in all the way.
