New Build Computer Wont Start ( Need Urgent Help Please )



Hello Dear OC3D I Need You're help with my newbuild computer.

I Did Buy all parts new from a internet store !

CPU : E8400

GPU : XFX 9800GT

Memory : 4GB Corsair 6400

Motherboard : Asus P5N32-E SLI

HDD : WD BLUE 640GB

PSU : Corsair 450W

This is my first build so i missed the ATX 12V And i didn't put any CPU because i didn't have any!

The Computer Booted and i did heard a sound ( TAH ) I did turn off the computer quick.

Started the computer again and did turn it off ( To check if it still works )

Next day i got my CPU i did put it in check everything and this time i did put the 12V And 24PIN to my motherboard.

WHAT I TRIED

My PSU Works ( Tried it )

Changed Memory

Tried To build everything over again

Reset CMOS

Tried Without CPU

My problem is that the computer wont turn on it doesn't make any beep sound / no noise , it doesn't start!

Now i need you're tip what i should do!

Is the motherboard broken?

Is there anything i can do ? or fix it?

You booted it without a CPU, what a stupid thing to do!

Well, have you got the 8Pin Motherboard connector in?

You should use a 8 Pin EPS Motherboard connector (it isn't 2 x 4 Pin, just a whole 8 Pin), but you can use a 4 Pin older P4 motherboard connector aswell (plug into the left hand side of the connector as you look at it).

The corsair VX450 does have an 8pin EPS connector, that splits in to two 4 pin connectors, did you only plug one of these in, without a cpu? It might be booting it without a cpu that caused the damage, although it could be lack of power from the EPS connector. I am curious as to what 4 pin cable you used though?
