I've just put my new build together. Everything was wired in, went to turn it on and the fans start and then stop immediately then it tries to do it again and still nothing. Any ideas what this could be?
 
Is the 4 or 8 pin for cpu power connected - often gets missed.

Failing that try minimal spec ie, one memory module, hd, cpu and gpu also try a CMOS reset.

Please post full spec :)
 
Ok I forgot to put the cpu power connector in. Now it boots, no beeps and doesn't output a display and just sits there. Fans are all on, but nothing happens. LEDs on the board have two green one amber and one red.
Full spec is as follows

i5 750
4gig G.skill ram
650w corsair psu
gt460
gigabyte ga-p55m
1tb samsung hd

One thing to check is the memory in the correct slots, did this on my build last year, also try the CMOS reset.
 
Yeah memory seems to be the problem a lot of the time try that, also if the MOBO has display outputs try using those instead of the GFX cards outputs if you're not already.
