    I got my Lian Li PC 7 plus se today!

    So i spent most of the afternoon swapping everything from my old case into the new case.

    I re-seated my Freezer 64 pro as it was facing the wrong way, and I fitted a Zalman VF700-cu to my X1800XT.

    When I try to boot, I get 3 red leds and a blinking red led. The there is one long beep and then it wont post........

    I have tried disconnecting my DVD drive and HDDs and still no luck......

    What will I do?

    I dont want to have to strip it down again:(
    P.s Could the X1800XT "know" that its fan connector isnt connected, as the Zalman's fan gets it's power from a molex plug

    Check your manual, it'll say what the various beeps and lights indicate.
    Mobo's seated properly on its mounts?
    All power connections connected properly?

    I tried re-seating everything........

    But I decided to clear the bios before stripping it all down and it worked!!

    I dont know why it needed a Bios clear as no hardware has changed..........

    Unless I plugged the SATA drives in different ports this time?

    Anyway Its alive and thanks to all:)

    P.s I will read the manual next time:D
