ok i went through 2 PSU's trying this but what else could it be.....
i am running the system in my sig and the two times that i tried tto turn it on((both times with 2 diff PSU's)) the fan turns on for a sec and it stops tokin but nothing else even turns on......i thought it was the PSU but it isnt cause earlier today i picked up another neopwoer from compusa and that didnt work either.......PLEASE HELP ME
 
did you just make the computer? I had a similar problem where the fans would spin for like 3 secs and then it would shut off. This was due to the bios detecting that there was no cpu fan installed so it didn't boot the computer to ensure that the processor did not over heat.
Since i water cooled, i had to find a 3 pin fan, plug it into the cpu fan slot, turn on the comp, enter the bios and disable that fan feature. After that, i could run it with no problems.

Is your fan rastafarian, btw :p
 
i had that problem, i think it was something not mounted correctly. All I did was push some cables/hardware around and it worked, sorry.
 
Take everything out of the case and set it up a piece of cardboard with only the critical items conneted (boot drive, PSU, video, RAM). You should at least get into BIOS with this configuration. If not, try reseating RAM, CPU, processor HSF, video.
