I bought a Super Flower 750 from OCUK and installed it in a new case with an (HP) IPM87-MP motherboard originally from an HP Pavillion PC yesterday. I also added a Saphire R9-280x (Vapor-X) graphics card.

It worked fine last night and earlier today but it stopped working when watching a video and it won't power up now. Tried different power cable and socket, so no issues there. Also checked connections inside box, all secure.

Initial thought was a faulty power unit so I unhooked the SF power unit and tried the old one from the Pavillion (swapped graphics card back to original one due to power requirements). Still no power.

I the replaced the on-board battery, still no luck.

Could this be a motherboard problem?

Thoughts please?
 
good to have the 2nd hand parts to help narrow down...

remove everything easily removed and reseat and check the front panel connectors are still attached for power on.
