PC not booting

[benparker]

Yesterday I took my motherboard out to fit a new cooler and tested it outside of the case and it worked fine with a PC game. Installed new graphics card and I was using anti static strap throughout. It had all the components on but oitside the case. I then put it in my new itx case (Thermaltake Core V1) and when I pressed the power button, it didn't switch on, there is no post.

Its an Asus Maximus VI Impact board so I pressed the start button on the board (which is illuminated) to power it, still didn't boot. Did a BIOS flash, but didn't boot. Took of all the cables but still not booting.

Please help

Hello benparker

Does the thermaltake core VI pc case have the motherboard standoffs preinstalled or do you have to install them. I had to install the stand offs in my thermaltake case.

It sounds like you may have a ground problem or a power connection problem.

Preinstalled like this, so what should I do?

You shouldn't need motherboard standoffs since the screw holes are elevated, double check all your power connections to the motherboard and graphics card are correct and seated properly. With your pc powered down hold the clear cmos button at the back of the motherboard for 3 seconds then try booting.

If it's still not booting what code is the motherboard giving you?
