nothing happens after assembling pc

[noob]

hi
I have connected the components myself after reading the manual.

when I turn on power, nothing happens.
NO BEEP
PSU and CPU fan not spinning.no glow of LED on keyboard too.
ONL

a small LED on mobo glows. indicates that supply is OK upto motherboard.

what can be the issue?


note I have cooler master 430 n check image, I have not connected this.

Check the connections on your Motherboard. Also, check the headers of the Power.

[noob]

yeah...m kinda confused with headers. but will that be an issue for no PSU and CPU fan spinning ?

[Anush]

Yes, only when the power of the Motherboard is switched on the PSU's fan will rotate.

Must be Ram problem. Use individual sticks to find which is problem.

Refit them properly.

motherboard LED glows, which means power to motherboard is OK. (correct me if m wrong)

Even there is NO BEEP SOund.

[Anush]

Led on the Motherboard will glow. But only after you switch on Motherboards Power (via Power Button) the Motherboard starts working. So, first check the headers of the Power on the Motherboard.

Beep sound is not that important. Refit them, use individual sticks first in alternate sockets

in this image -

where is Sata power connector from psu to HDD???




the thing you have connected is just sata cable to mobo and HDD?
but you missed powering HDD

[noob]

it was connected , but removed b4 clicking this pic.

but FAN shld spin..right ? no matter if HDD has power or not ?

[Jaskanwar Singh]

so you mean you connected it originally.

and BTW those white connectors you left unconnected are for fan. put in molex there from psu.

can you post a fully assembled pic(clear)?

[thetechfreak]

Search near the cpu socket, there will be a place where you can plug in those white connectors

NO. they are not to be put on mobo.
you need to plug in molex from psu in them!!!

[noob]

removed 1 RAM , connected everything back including headers. have put a molex from PSU in that white pin from above image.

still the same, LED on mobo glows but no PSU and CPU fan rotating.

here is what i did

confirm the Headers plz

CM 430 has following headers, POWER , RESET , HDD , P+ and P-
here is how i added it


7-5 = RESET
3-1 = HDD LED
8-6 = POWER

now in 4 goes -P LED and in 2 goes +P LED

1. Motherboard fan can spin without any HDD
2. PSU fan will only spin when your motherboard kicks in the process of booting (motherboard fan starts spinning if you have connected the wire.)

Most probably you have some problem with motherboard connectors, start, restart, hdd light etc. Check if you have plugged em right.

[noob]

Faun,check the image i posted in above pic and how i have connected the headers

[Faun]

try to short the on/off terminals with a metal bolt. If it works then fine else the problem lies somewhere else.

Your connections look right, a pic of mobo with conn will be helpful.

[noob]

I think PSU is faulty. how do i check it ?

****..assembling a PC is headache.

[Faun]

Any led on mobo glowing ?

[noob]

yes. it is glowing man

[Anush]

Don't give up.
Give it a try once more. Check all the headers, power connections,etc. Once again.

[noob]

have checked everything and seems fine.

I think PSU is faulty.
( i hope its not)

The PSU is fine, that power phase LED near RAM slots.

[noob]

its not near RAM slot. its next to mobo headers O.oo
and it glows.

what else i need to check ?

above CPU is a 2x2 power slot.

here i put a 4pin connector *with 2 black and 2 yellow wires. )

do u think i m putting it in wrong way or does it fits only when plugged in in a proper way ?

[Faun]

Can you post the whole motherboard pic with the setup you have done.

The latch should match with the wedge on the 2x2 power slot.

[noob]

, Actually, i have now packed everything. very tired. Will try fresh tomorrow morning now.

[saswat23]

I think its the problem with power connector. Check it properly, if u have connected all the power connector of the power switch on the mobo.

This is the real problem with one who doesn't know assembling. Thats why i would suggest you to call an assembler and watch him while he assembles. Mean while you can clear all your doubts from him too. This way you too can learn how to assemble a system and can assemble a system of your own.
Plz dont mind. Its just my suggestion. I am suggesting u such coz if u connect cables in wrong slots then you may end up damaging your motherboard.
But if u r confident enough then u should still try.

I cannot see the imageshack images at home. For some reason my ISP blocks it. Try a CMOS reset with the system powered down.

Also read this, about connectors you could have plugged the PCI.Ex16 6PIN into the EPS 12V. It happens.

It seems your CPU is not getting powered up.

i have plugged this in to 2x2 power slot for CPU


check image too.

[noob]

cant think of whats the wrong thing i did.
