    keyboard for gaming

    I have the Saitek Gamer's keyboard and I really like it. I really like the backlit keyboard for night gaming, and the keys are finger sex (and seem durable). I have gotten no use out of the extra gaming attachment yet. BTW I play HL2: DM, CS:S, and WoW.

    I don't have another that will work with that system at the moment. The fan on the PSU and the video card both stay on now. The CPU fan doesnt power up at all. Also, the system power LED is on and unaffected by my hitting the power button.

    So the mistake I made was plugging the 4 part of the 20+4 power connector to the 4pin 12v connector on the motherboard. The fans stay on now but I still cannot power up my system. Have I broken something by putting in the wrong power connector?
