Untouched no power.

hatycat

So I was putting together a mitx rig today to use as a nas. And at first I thought I may of bent a few pins on the mobo. But I decided to put everything together first and try it to see if I had a problem.

I put everything together and sure enough it POSTed fine.
I then took a break and had lunch.
When I came back The Computer wouldn't power up at all. Despite the fact I hadn't even touched it. I tried makeing sure everything was connected tight. I jumped the PSU, and it worked fine. Tried to short the power switch so its not my case button.
I'm worried my Motherboard pins might in fact be bent, but then wouldn't I still get power, and just have post issues/weird beaks from the speaker? and wouldn't that have prevented it from posting earlier?

Either way I am stuck. Would like some ideas before I attempt Motherboard surgery in case it is not the problem. Thanks. I will try to help other people in the mean time.

UPDATE:
I have done pin surgery and the pins are now seemingly flush. However I still fail to boot.
