    So i got all my parts, put everything together (properly i think). But i've run into problems, and i'd appreciate any help or ideas offered.

    Here's what happens when i switch the computer on:

    The case fans, cpu fan, graphics card fan all switch on, as well as light on motherboard.

    However, the monitor is stuck in "power saving mode".
    When i plug the keyboard connector in, the keyboard lights don't come on and it doesn't seem to respond.

    When i plug the USB mouse in (either on the front case ports, or the motherboard ports) the optical light at the bottom flickers, but is not staying on.

    The DVD drive is opening and closing.

    The computer will power on, but i can't power it off as normal (holding switch for 5 seconds).

    The stress!
