Go to solution Solved by Faa,

I disconnected all exept for the case lighting, used the jumper method between green and black, and the lighting (and off course the psu) both work.

 

I reconnected everything and now it does boot but the psu makes a weird noise

Coil whine probably. RMA it if you aren't happy with its noise. Also do you have an asus board?

Hello everyone,

so I just build my first pc and I wanted it to look good so I installed some LED lighting. To test the lighting I wanted to boot the system up and sure it did, I could see all the lights and the fans started runnig ( it wasn't connected to a monitor yet). I powered it down again and placed the system on a little table next to my desk where it is supposed to be and now it suddenly won't boot/light up anymore.

Some help would be very much appreciated.

 

I'm sorry if I just made a very rookie mistake.

Thank you.

Check the PSU switch on the back, maybe you accidently switched it.

do you have a voltage meter? check power supply to see if it isnt dead.
