| 240180 | 2004-05-29 11:47:00 | Is it a new case you intalled the mobo in ? A while back I had the same problem, thought I had a ground somewhere and basically dicked around for an or so until I shorted the pwr pins on mobo ( not recommended) and she kicked merrily into life. Problem was a new case with crook contacts on its power switch. |

| 240183 | 2004-05-30 01:50:00 | is cpu and RAM installed correctly? some motherboards will not run without ram. also pull any unneccary cards from the system and led's etc. have you tried hitting the reset switch? easy way to tell if its a case problem is to remove it from the case and see if it will go. its generally not a grounding issue with cases, most comman is someone put the standoffs in the wrong place and is shorting out the wiring on the back of the board. check the switch pins location....it wouldn't be the first time the manuall was incorrect. |

| 240184 | 2004-05-30 02:10:00 | I had a similar problem on a PC Chips board a couple of weeks ago.......... The manual was wrong, the power connectors on the board were labeled as hdd led or reset sw or something( Not 100% sure now ). Perhaps check PC Chips website for board connectors and compare with your manual |
