I have a problem....

I just got a new case. I transfered everything from my old case to my new case. I have two problems. One is that ONLY the power switch works. No lights turn on at all. I tried everything and I can't get the ON light and the HD light to turn on. The other problem is that it takes super long to load windows. Like 3-4 minutes compared to about 8-12 seconds with my old case. I have everything in my old case right now because everything works in it. I was wondering if I was doing something wrong. I don't know what kind of motherboard I have. Stupid HP o_O. Here's a screenshot of CPU-z.

Here's the case that I got.

60 C is a safe zone. Your GPU should be fine. My 6800 GT hits 91 C under load which is definitely pushing the envelope.
 
I've never heard of a case causing slow OS load times, and I couldn't see how that's even possible.

Are you using the same power supply in the new case? Or did the new case come with a power supply?

There's a possibility that the wires for the case LEDs are bugged, but I can't say that is the definite problem. If that be the case, you will obviously need a new case.

Do you have all of the case LED wires connected to the proper pins?
 
im guessing you didnt connect the front wiring correctly

itll be a pain but you can find the correct setup online
 
I am using a different power supply. I ordered one off of newegg..Enermax 370 watt. Im using a 350 watt one right now. It came with the case. I mean, I can take a picture of the front wires and maybe you guys can tell me where they go....would that make things easier?
 
Might have just put the front panel wires in backwards. They arent light bulbs but LED's which you must get Positive and Ground correct. Just try reversing their connectors on the mobo.

Your Mobo manual will tell you where the wires go. If you dont have one download one.

Not sure why you have a slowdown what else was replaced besides the case? Power? Did you put the cards in different slots?
 
15 seconds seems pretty fast Im assuming you had NO NETWORK CARD and you Added network when you moved to the new case?

Network connection is what slows down most PC's boot time.

Or you were using hybrination mode instead and are now doing a full power down and up.
