I double checked all my connections and power cables and it seemed to be tip top shape. When I turn on the power supply the motherboard LED light comes on, so that is a plus. However when I press the power button it does not turn the computer on, I.E. fans, CPU etc.

I even took out the video card and a stick of ram to SEE if that would show any different result and it did not. Not sure where to go from here.

Any HELP would be great.you sure you don't have any computer parts that may be DOA?Some might be DOA but not sure which part it would be.

Connect only the following:
PSU
CPU/Fan
Keyboard
Monitor
Vid card if needed
1 stick of RAM

The MBoard should be on a rubber mat or piece of cardboard.
