I am building a PC. I have run into one problem.
I have connected everything to the motherboard. When I go to power up to install windows, I run into one problem.
There are two power cables for the motherboard. One is your standard P1 cable (long white cable), and the smaller 12V P1 cable (looks identical but is much smaller).
When I power up the PC, WITH the smaller power cable connected, the power shuts off five seconds after (the computer does not boot), but I do have power to the CD Rom drives.
When I power up the PC, WITHOUT the smaller power cable connected, the power stays on, but I have no power to the CD Rom drives.
PLEASE help me out!!! Thanx
