A8N-Premium - Blinking status light

Hi All,
I just installed a watercooling setup in my PC. Everything was working
perfectly before. I reconnected it all up, powered up, and the system
kicked in for about 4 seconds then died.

Now when I turn it on, I get a rapidly flashing status light. I checked
the manual, but I've no idea what that means.

Anyone got any ideas?

If you mean the green power LED on the motherboard is flashing on and
off, I would suspect there's a short on the power supply.
 
How did you get a usb cable the wrong way?


PS _ how do you like the board so far ? - I just built a new system :
A8N-SLI Premium Rev 1.02
AMD 4400+ Dual Core.
OCZ Gold 1 GIG running at 2.2.2.5 Dual Channel
BFG 7800GT PCI-E (Just 1 right now, will add 2nd soon )
2 WD2500KS Sata2 ,250 Gig Each, 16 meg cache, 300MB/Sec in a Raid 0.
Antec TX1088AMG Metallic Grey SOHO 480W case

I love it - Super Fast and Very Stable (After finaly getting bios settings
correct.)

I only had 1/2 the pins connected up!

Almost the same setup as me. I have a 7800GTX and the Enermax 600W
Noisetaker PSU. I've just water cooled the sucker and am fighting with
overclocking it. It'll POST at some ridiculous speeds, but blue screens
a lot. I think I need to spend a day tinkering, and possibly add some
heatsinks.

Still it's almost perfectly silent now - sounded like a hoover with the
CPU and GPU under heavy load!
