| The basics:- Are all cables & devices connected properly? Make double sure. There should be a little power light somewhere on the motherboard, when you turn your PSU on does this light come on? What kind of PSU are you using (Manufacturer/Wattage)? EDIT: Oh, can you post the rest of your system specs for reference?

| Could be a PSU issue, you could try using another (if you've got access to one)... The first time you turned it on, did you hear a single "Beep" from the motherboard? Or any sound attall?

| Try reseting CMOS. In your mobo manual it will tell you how to do this using the jumpers and battery. EDIT: Don't know if this'll work, but it's worth a shot imo.
