Hi,

Try this and report back:

> Connect ATX connector to motherboard

> Hook up 12volt (almost square) molex to motherboard

> CPU/Heatsink/Fan with fan connected to motherboard

> Off/On switch connected to front panel header

> Speaker wire on

> No drives, no video card, no memory, no drives....

Turn it on and see if it beeps like a banshee.....and if it does, put one stick of memory in according to the motherboard manual instructions (which slot). Give it a test run and see what happens....stop there and report back.

> Does it beep with memory in

> Do fans and light come on

> Does it shut down after starting
