New Build - will not power up
Hello,
Just finished a new build ( 2nd one) and it will not power up. It only powers up for 1-2 seconds then shuts off automatically. When it is on for the 1-2 seconds everything powers up but again just shuts off. I believe all the connecters are in the right place. I had a hard time at some points figureing out what goes where. Specs are: Mobo: Asus P5B-E CPU: 6400E Intel VC: eVGA 7950 HDD: 7200.10 Seagate PSU: 600w OCZ Any ideas what might be wrong? Thanks in advance |

Sorry also forgot to mentioned the memory I am using
Corsair DDR2 XMS Twinx 1gig x 2 sticks. I doubt it was the ram as tried one stick of each per test and it did the same thing. |

DoH! I figured it out. I forgot to conect the CPU 4 prong power plug. I previous build and upgrade did not have this option so I overlooked it.
