No response when power switch hit.

[Eaglestrike]

So just built my new computer today. Specs are at: viewtopic.php?f=36&t=32492 with a slightly weaker video card, same PSU + Mobo and other stuff.

Put it together today, and when I hit the power switch nothing happens. I've read in the manual many times about the little switches that go from the case to the motherboard and flipped them around in almost every way you can. I've checked connections all over the place, still no response whatsoever.

Any ideas what the problem is? I/already was busted motherboard? PSU? Am I still just doing something wrong?

The PSU has a 2x10 connector to the motherboard, with it is a 2x2 that can't really reach any place else. The 2x10 connector only seems to fit on one side of the 2x12 slot, but the 2x2 has to awkwardly bend around if it were to fit into the remaining 2x2 slot left. I've tried both with and without the 2x2 plugged in, but I'm not even sure I have the 2x2 in completely when I do try it. Should it be in or not? Is there some other place I can fit the 2x10 section in the 2x12 slot?

It's my birthday and this is highly frustrating, any suggestions? I don't think I have any spare parts I can use, so that won't be a good fix.

Sounds like you hooked something up wrong. First, you need to plug in the 24 pin power connector that provides main power to the motherboard. I'm not sure why your cable has a detachable 2 pin, but it should all be plugged in. There's also a 4 pin connector on the other side of the board that provides power to the processor. You need that plugged in also.

Sounds like my PSU shouldn't have come with 230V selected first. It didn't sound right to me but I asked my mother and she said 220V is what we have...bleh. Switched it to 115V and got a single POST beep right away, now to installation...

Most power supplies come switched in the 230V position because if they came in the 115V position and were plugged into a 230V power source, it would fry the power supply and possibly the pc.

Ah, interesting. That makes sense, but it was the first PSU I've ordered that came like that...and I've ordered about 10, so that's the first in roughly 10 that came like that, lol.

Nah, Silverstone is just lazy and ships mostly in foreign countries. All the Silverstone PSUs I've had without Active PFC come with the switch to 230v. Stick should be set to 115v though.
