    Having New Computer [power?] Problems

     
    So, I just finished my new PC build, and when I try to turn it on, the fans and whatnot run for a second, then it all cuts out. There's still a light in the case that's on, though. I have to turn the PSU off and on again, then the power button on the case, for it to happen again, though. I'm guessing it's a power issue? I've tried disconnecting one of the cards and a few of the fans, still no go.

    This is the build: Wish List TigerDirect.com
    Except for the MoBo, which is actually: XFX MB-N790-IUL9 Desktop Board - MBN790IUL9 - Buy.com

    Sounds like a grounding problem.... take it all out of the case and assemble on a carboard box and try and get it to POST.

    Fixed the problem, I just didn't have stand-offs between the MoBo and the MoBo tray. Thanks for the tip.

    That would be a BIG grounding problem.
