Comp Wont Start (Fixed)

Hey there, this may sound generic but I just built a new computer and it wont start period, so I figured it was the PSU because last time I had a dead mobo the fans would atleast start up, so I got a new PSU and that didn't work either, so I used one that works and still, it didn't work. Could it be the mobo? Because last time the fans atleast started, nothing happens, so I'm guessing this could be fault wiring with the actual power button, because when I plugged the Cat5 into the LAN port in the back, both lights lit up green but I wasn't sure if that was being powered by the onboard battery. :Z Any solutions?

Edit: BTW this is the mobo I have in the machine right now thats not working:

I looked for a light on the mobo but I didn't see one so I'm not sure if its the mobo or not \:

Try check your system panel connector whether connect correctly according your user's manual.

I didn't burn the CPU, the fans wont even move. Even if the CPU was burned, the fans would still turn on. Plus I know that I didn't have the plastic film on because I gave a tiny spot a cut with my fingernail.

Nvm, fixed it, I did everything right, but the front power button's cord was stuck behind the front of the case, when I opened it up I wasn't too suprised to find it there. Anyway, everything works fine now. Thanks for the help.
