It won't boot up. Fans spin up sometimes, but never any POST. Sometimes the CPU fan stries to spin but apparently doesn't get enough power.
I've tried two power supplies, a 400W and a 300W, both with the 4 pin connector. I thought I discovered the problem when I realized that I hadn't tried to start it with anything but the video card connected to the PSU, and my PSUs are both Sparkles that require load on the 5v line. So I plugged in a HD, and fans actually spun up. I thought the problem was solved, but after I put everything in my case and tried again, nothing happened, and nothing has happened since then.
Components:
Intel E6600
2gb OCZ DDR 800
Geforce 7950GX2
ECS PT890T-A (exchanged, thinking ECS junk was the cause of my problems, 2nd didn't work either)
Gigabyte 965P-DS3 (just bought, because I figured the odds were good that two ECS mobos didn't work, judging by the fact that 2/3 at Fry's were returns with a $2 markdown).
I'm getting frustrated. If it was the CPU or RAM, wouldn't the fans still spin? HELP!!!
