New build won't boot.

[WilsonH]

So, haven't done this in forever and everything seemed to be going fine. Went together nicely.. Go to power on and all i get is fans and a green light. Nothing else.

Parts are all here: http://www.hardforum.com/showthread.php?t=1245960

Power on i get a green light on the mb, and system fans, and video card fan turns on.. CPU fan doesn't start and it doesn't do anything else.

Only time i got any sort of beep was when i had the video card in, and didn't connect the power to it's fans. Constant loud beep from that.

Tried checking everything, but not sure what to do next.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Ignore above post.. 8pin power connector had a bunch of junk in it seems. Plastic or packing or something. Didn't realize it until I rechecked everything a couple times before I noticed that.

All was fine after that.. Scary though

Kind of sounds like what I had to go through recently on my Asus P5E. I put everything together but the computer would not boot. I got a green motherboard power light and my fans were spining (no beeps at all). The problem for me was the ram I carried over from my last build was not supported. I went and bought some Crucial ram and it worked fine.
