Just fitted my old motherboard into a new antec nsk 4400 case.

Booted up and all is well, until suddenly it restarts - i couldn't see what it said on screen but the screen kept flickering (flashing on and off as i could see from a distance as in changing screens) Now i press the power button and it won't boot.

It's a Abit nf7-s motherboard, the motherboard light is on and red. I recently switched the LED front panel cables around as before they weren't working.

I have both the cables connected for the power supply on the mobo, the small 12v one, (4 pin) and the 24 pin? one.

Have i killed it? :(

Turn it off at the mains for a min then try powering back on. If its still not booting, remove everything but cpu/ram,video.
