Morning all, having a few problems with new pc. Basicly pressing the power button for the first time resulted in a 1-2 second spin of life from everything plugged in...then nothing. Now its all dead.
The standby lights on the motherboard are on, but even pressing the DIY power switch on the mobo doesnt help.

It's a DFI lanparty NF-4 D, with a Antec 450w PSU. I've tried plugging the psu into another pc and then that one wouldnt start up so im fairly sure its the PSU.

So im clicking my fingers at the moment as to what to do.

Any advice/help?

Cheers.
 
Thats what i was thinking. Problem is, the PSU came with the case and sending that back will be a right pain!
Are these Antec truepower PSU's any good?
It's only a 450w, im hoping that is enough to support a 1900XT and 3800 X2 ?
 
thanks for replies guys. im waiting on a friend to bring up another PSU for testing.
i dont understand why on this mobo there are HD and floppy power slots???
