:( well i spent a good half a day doing my first build. and i knew it wouldnt be to long before i get problems.

basicly i put it all together and now. it wont start :(

i noticed on my psu. (hiper type r 580w) there is a main lead on there. for connection on the motherboard. wich is a ASUS A8N sli- deluxe with the connection on there being a
ATX12V connection but on the psu the main lead for the power to it. is does NOT fit right. the connection holes are different. there is another lead i used on this. and it fits perfect. but the system still doesnt boot.

i know the psu has power as the backlight is working. but when i click on the power button nothing happens.

system spec in sig.

please anyone got the same system or. motherboard and psu. can tell me how to fix it???

thank you :)

omg lol.

i think thats the problem if you hadnt of said that i still be stuck. and yeah there is a 20 pin but i think u can add the extra 4 aswell.

i was trying to fit the 4 pin one into a small thing but it didnt fit. i think if i put all of them together in the larger one. i might power up.

i try that now :)
 
wooot yeah it boots. :)

very quite. umm now i got to do bios but i got some tutorials to help me. the graphics at the begging was all messed up though not shure what that is. but. it has nothing on here so needs the drivers i guess :)
 
well once i try to boot from cdrom it gets stuck on listing all the stuff and nothing happens just says im missing bits. i think i will try again in the morning. cause a few things not come up like one of my dvd drives and a spare harddrive. so i try again 2moro.

and links you got on helping on a fresh install. like step by step. that be most helpfull :)

cheers, ice
