    Hi Guys

    novice here, just tried to do a transplant of the bit from my FSC to a Coolermaster Mystique case.

    Upgraded the PSU to 500W OCZ.

    Just finished wiring it all up and although the power led on the motherboard is lighting the system just won't fire up off the power button.

    Any tips would be appreciated.

    thanks

    Triple-check your front-panel connections.

    If that fails, consider taking the mobo and psu out of the case and laying the mobo on a non-conductive surface.
    Check the standoffs in the mobo tray, ATX spec normally uses 9. Check that your board has 9 holes, and that the standoffs are in the right locations.

    Go into your BIOS and configure it (maybe by 'load defaults', with some tweaking), save settings, reboot.
