I got no power

I just built my first pc. And when everything was connected I applied powerand all I have to show for it is a green LED on the motherboard. But nothing else happens. No fans, beeps, etc. Oh and the front panel doesn't light up or even flicker. I tried using a new power supply but no joy.

Please post the parts you are using for this computer (including the power supplies you tried).

How are you trying to power up the computer? Are you just hitting the rocker switch on the power supply?

Send a message via AIM to newbuilder14
Check the pin connections on the motherboard.
