i know a lot about computers but i never actually built one before. bought a barebones kit from tigerdirect.com and bought a cpu fan seperately from newegg.com and built it all yesterday and today and went to power it on and nothing, i've rearranged the front panel wiring, checked all the board power connections, made sure all the wires and cables were connected to their correct respective place and still nothing, the only thing i see is that when i plug the power cord into the power supply and flip the power switch on the power supply to on a green light turns on on the motherboard right between the SATA connections to the board and the front panel connections. no power shows other than that. any ideas would be much appreciated...i really would like to finish this pc asap. our old computer was outdated and my mom wanted to play the sims 2 and she just got an operation and is being discharged from the hospital tomorrow so i'd like to have it up and running for when she gets home so she can play her game while recovering. thanks in advance!
