Going to start by saying i read the FAQs and tried doing the things that they said with no luck.
This is the first computer ive built that has ever given me any problems...all the others were just hook up and go.
Here are the specs:
mobo: ASUS P5LD2
cpu: Pentium D 805 2.66GHz
heatsink: Scythe KATANA 92mm
RAM: 1GB 240-Pin DDR2 DDR2 667 (PC2 5300)
cdrom: NEC 16X DVD Burner
sata drives: WD 80GB 7200 RPM x2
vid card: BIOSTAR Geforce 6200 L64-bit GDDR2 PCI Express x16 (cheapo card)
PSU: Rosewill RD500-2-DB ATX V2.2 500W Power Supply
After hooking everything up when I hit the power button all the fans will cut on for a split second then the power will cut off. I unhooked all the extra components and the same thing happens...ive reinstalled the CPU/heatsink sevral times to see if maybe there was a bad connection...ive reset the ram sevral times...I thought maybe i put to much thermal paste on so i took some off, that didnt help. Not sure if it maters but the fans will stay on if i turn it on when there is no CPU installed.
I am sure i left out some details please ask if you need more information.
Thank you
