 | Re: My first build...Just doesn't turn on. Ok listen to me, you need to hook your cases power button to the motherboard. At the front of your case, theres a button you press to turn it on. Coming from that button are a set of wires attached to a small black header that has 2 small pins in it. Look in your motherboard manual for the exact pin assignments but on the very bottom right of the bard there is an area that has about a dozen pins in a 2x6 arrangement. Plug the wires coming from the power button into the pins labeled by the Manual as PWR SW. For future reference I highly advise you to read a building guide before you try anything else.

| Re: My first build...Just doesn't turn on. Seems like he's ignored hooking up the PWR BTN to the mobo. This is getting extremely irritating. He's not listen and he's trying to **** us off.

| Re: My first build...Just doesn't turn on. Probably nothing, but let's just suffice to say that Ultra has a pretty bad rep. Ummm do you have a spare pci/pci-e graphics card to test with?
