Mother board problem
I put a new MB (PC CHIPS) with P4 etc and a 400W power supply in and I get nothing when I try to turn it on, the power supply fan does not run, no lights, no sounds, nada.
I am assuming a MB fault and intend to send it back, but before I do, has anyone any ideas as to other reasons for this to happen? I tried putting the case switches onto different points on the connectors, thinking they might have been mislabelled, but did not help. Although there are only two pins for the Power LED and the plug from the case is a three pin one (using the two outside pins, of course) so I have left it off, would that affect power up? It is a mini ATX board and the only power is the main one, the aux plug is not used. frustration!
