Hi everyone,built myself a spanking new pooter yesterday and all went well until powering it up. On pressing the power button it all lights up;whirly bits all whirl but then it stops after maybe 1/2 a second. Googling suggests it might be :
Dead power supply (Brand new but maybe D.O.A.)
Dead motherboard (Ditto;Ditto)
Short circuit somewhere
Anyone ever have this sort of issue and resolve it? I've built quite a few PC's and never had anything like this ; I'm prepared to either tear it all down to check or swap in my old PSU as I know it works ; but thought I would ask first in case I'm missing something. As it stands I have spent £750 on a doorstop :facepalm:
Thanks ; kampos/Dave
