wont power on

[meh485]

ok i turned on the power, i dont think the video card worked cuz the fan wasnt spinning and the monitor said no input, so i turned it off from the power supply cuz the buttons on the case didnt work, checked the video card, i didnt notice nething. tried to turn it bak on but it wont.
there is a light on the motherboard that lights on when the power supply is turned on but when i press the power button on the case nothing happens, the odd thing is that it worked b4 and i didnt touch ne of the wires.
so please ne help would be great

ok how old is this system?
post system specs

if the buttons on the case dont work, it may be a wirring problem, even if you said you did'nt touch anything, it could of disconnect without you knowing it.

did you try flashing the bios, cause if you did it wrong it could be that

i think its the PSU that went dead

[grievingexistence]

im pretty sure that card also gets power from a 4 pin molex connector. Is that also connected to the card? Take a look at your motherboards manual in order to hook up your case to the correct pins.

im pretty sure the video card does not have a 4 pin power plug in

That's a horrible quality power supply. I wouldn't be surprised at all if it kicked the bucket already. Do you have another compliant one you could try?

If the video card required another power connector it wouldn't have worked before.

I'd look at getting a quality power supply (ATX 2.0 - 24 pin connector) from Antec, Enermax, Forton Source (FSP), Seasonic, or XClio. Even if the power supply isn't to blame, you'll be better off in the long run.

XClio has a pretty good 450W unit for $50 or so at Newegg.com
