*Not sure if this is in the wrong forum, if so im sorry and please move it*

Well. my comp was running fine but in a month or so i want to get a new Quad core CPU, and my MoBo was pretty old ( about 1 year ) so it could not support Quad core. so i bought This Motherboard.

This MoBo replaced http://tinyurl.com/5chsgy

My power supply is http://tinyurl.com/6l89ob

so, i took apart my comp, piece my piece. and put it back together with my new MoBo and a new set of 4 gig Corsair memory. 2X 2gig sticks. i have rebuilt this comp 2 times in the past, but only to put it into a new case. and now when everything is hooked up correctly ( i have checked and rechecked the connection 3 times now ) when i click the power on button, nothing happens. when checking the main 24 pin ATX power cable, i plugged it into the Motherboard with the power supply on, the fan and light on my heat sink fan flashed for a second or so. thats all the activity i have got so far. any suggestions would be great. thanks.
