HI
I'm trying to do my first PC build and I have a problem. I had the motherboard installed in the case with everything hooked up except my drives. I plugged the computer in to see if the CPU fan and the power button and power supply would all be working. They were.
I installed the hard drive, floppy drive and CD/DVD rom drives. When I truned the computer on again, the CD/DVD rom drive didn't come on, but the floppy did. I had the CD drive plugged into IDE2 on the motherboard. I turned the computer off and moved it to IDE3. When I went to turn it back on, the CPU fan just moved a bit and then nothing. The Power supply wouldn't come on.
I have two LED lights on my motherboard, LED1 and LED2. LED1 isn't coming on anymore. Can someone tell me waht LED1 is for?
I tried hooking up a different power supply and the same thing.
I don't know what happened. Maybe you can tell I don't know much of what I'm doing. I never did this before. Could I have did something to my motherboard by switching the CD drive to the other IDE connector, or maybe by plugging and unplugging the computer like I did. I couldn't turn it off with the power button, so I had to unplug it.
