Hello!

 

So i just got this new computer and put all the stuff in the case in such, i made sure everything is plugged in correctly and all that jazz. However, when i flip the PSU switch to ON the lights on the motherboard flash for a brief second and then turn off. When i tried to press the power on button on the case nothing happened and nothing turned on. Has anyone had any issues like this before? The link to the motherboard that im using will be below and the PSU im using is a EVGA 750 watt which i know works fine because i used it the computer before this one. Before posting this i tested the CPU, RAM, and graphics card on my friends motherboard which is the exact same model as mine and they all worked. Im fairly certain its a mobo issue... Any help is appreciated.... Thanks.

Maybe the switch on the case isnt connected properly? Could just short the on/off pins on the board with say, a screwdriver
