AMAZING... every part I have works and I have tested each one.... yet when I put it all in the case, and start it, the new motherboard gives the "FF" on the LED as if its trying to boot up... there is nothing at all on the display screen.

Build it outside the case.
On the mobo's box is normally the best place.
If it the works your mobo is being shorted out by the case.
Check for extra standoff that are not needed.
Check the case is not bent and shorting out an edge of the mobo.
Ect, ect.


Luck...........

QFT.

Your case is very likely shorting your mobo.

I built it outside the case, same result. all the fans turn, sounds like its trying to boot, shows FF on the mobo's led. But absolutely nothing on the display. The display acts as if nothings there.... keep in mind that I've tested every part and every part works... for some reason I'm not having luck.

hey I want to mention that I did build it inside my motherboards box. I doesnt look like anything at all is shorting the motherboard... something about this makes no sense to me.
