Mobo doesn't do anything.... please help....

[stingbandel]

Hi, I have a problem. Yesterday I changed my computer case because the power supply was already broken. I changed my AT case to ATX case since my mobo supported both type. After changing the case, it went fine. But after about 10 minutes, now my mobo didn't do anything. It didn't get any power to operate the mobo. I couldn't even open the CD Rom. So there's like no power on the mobo but the CPU fan worked just fine and the power supply fan ran just fine. Later on, I found out that my bro accidently put the speaker cable that's from the case to the sound card connector. Could this cause the mobo not to work? I am not sure what makes the mobo can't get the power to operate. The CD Rom also can't be opened so there is no power. The lights on the front of the case are all on. So what makes this thing happened and how do I fix it? Thanks

Darno

Check to make sure the motherboard is seated correctly in the case (i.e. nothing touching the motherboard that shouldn't be, such as a loose screw or something).

Thanks Tony, yes I got that to work already. That was the problem like what you wrote.
