Last night I set my alarm for 08:30 so that I was awake waiting for my new pc to be delivered, 09:07 and it comes, I unpack it, plug it all in go to power it up and nothing

but all the motherboard lights are on which I dont understand. What are your thoughts? I really wanna get this new pc up and going asap.

Cheers

have you check the cmos reset jumper.

its often set to clear to save the cmos battery.

make sure that the front power button is connected properly.

OMFG who knew the "LCD SW" button had to be pushed at the back of the computer for all the LEDS to come on and then boot up.
