Is the motherboard light on? Like do you see some kind of indication that your computer is getting power, if not then your PSU is dead my friend.

try plugging in your computer and let it sit for a while like 15 minutes, then trying pressing the power button

technically bro, you didn't really say that on this thread :P

I didnt... wtf I thought I didLouieV13

You did in the other thread where you asked people to find you a PSU :P

Three things, in order of frequency:

1. A connection in the power circuitry vibrated loose. If it's a manually plugged in connection, look for it. If it's soldered, it's harder to both find and to fix.

2. The switch on the case has quit (happened to me three times in the past three years), or it is disconnected.

3. The power supply has died. This can be an outright disaster. Cheaply made PSUs can generate a current surge as they fail that can destroy various other sustem components at the same time, same as if you took a lightning strike without any surge suppression.

The only one of these I can offer help with is number two. Remove the access panel and unplug the connectoer from the panel pin array, then use a screwdriver to short those two momentarily. If the PC starts, you have a bad or disconnected on-off switch.

Sucks dude, I also see that u did some oc'ing on the 6k+. :D Nice work.Deagle_11

Instead of starting a new and separate message thread about needing a power supply, it would've been better to continue with that conclusion here in this thread.

The manual that supports the motherboard has a diagram in it with all of the front panel's pins labelled. It is very easy to find the two for the on-off switch, and replacing a missing manual is very easy, since there are free downloads of PDF versions on the MB company's web site.

you should check the motherboard to see if there are any blown capacitors on it. capacitors are those things that look like soda cans. normally they should have a flat top but if you see one that's curved up or cracked or one that has a brown-ish substance at the top then that means it's blown. one blown capacitor is enough to kill a motherboard.
