I recently recieved a new case for christmas and I was moving the parts
from one to to the other. I made sure that I was very careful in the
exchange of parts. I got the system to turn on with no problems and
shut down for the night. They next morning. I tried to turn on the
machine and nothing is happening, no POST, no beeps. I notice that the
green LED on the motherboard is on and I wired pin 4 and 6 on the power
supply connector using a power bypass wire provided by koolance. Case
powered up fine. I tried removing all the components except the video
card and memory with no luck. Cleared the CMOS and also looked for any
stray screws that could cause a short and found nothing. This has me
pretty stumped any advice/knowledge would be greatly appreciated.

Here are my specs.

Case: Koolance PC3-720SL Professional Line Case (liquid cooled)
Motherboard: Asus K8V SE Deluxe
Processor: AMD Athlon 64 3200+
Memory: 1GB Corsair XMS PC3200
Video Card: Nvidia 6800XT 128MB
Hard Drives: 2x 120GB Seagate SATA
Sound Card: Soundblaster Audigy 2 Platinum

Hi,

look like a common problem on those mobo... could you plug any speakers
on the motherboard and then try to boot. This mobo doesn't use any beep,
but a voice, but only with the internal sound card.

You may have a problem with the power supply during start-up, if you
have any, try another PSU (with more power). Mine is a 460W, the first
one I tried was a 450W, but lower quality I think.

Marc.

Remove the video card and see if it starts. You should get an
error message for the missing video card, but at least you will
have proved it isn't dead.

The "Vocal POST" on your board can work, even without any
components plugged into the board. The motherboard should
start, and then, with amplified speakers plugged into
Lineout on the motherboard audio stack, you will hear
"No CPU Installed".

If that doesn't work, I would suspect the power supply.
What kind of supply is it ? How much current does the water
pump use from +12V ?

I know the power supply works for a fact. Sorry I didn't post this
before but I have an Antec TrueBlue 480 watt power supply. Koolance
provides a wire jumper to bypass the power switch using the 20 pin
mother board power connector and uses pin 4 and 6, on the case to test
for leakage before you put the parts in. Using the bypass method the
case starts up fine no errors. As for the current drawn for the liquid
pump I looked in the koolance manual and didn't find anything about the
power specs. I just tried taking the video card out and still nothing.
As for the vocal POST, i believe I have it disabled, I have always
heard the 1 beep when it POSTed in the other case. I just don't
understand, it was working perfectly fine the night before in the new
case, no problems or anything.
 
Sorry didn't post this before. My power supply is an Antec TrueBlue 480
watt. The power supply I know for a fact works due to the fact that the
Koolance jumper wire they provided with the case powers up the case no
problems (using the 20 pin mother board power connector pin 4 and 6). I
tried remove the video card and still nothing. As for the vocal post, I
know this board always does the 1 beep when it POSTs. I looked in the
Koolance manual and didn't find anything about the current drawn from
the +12V. I don't understand this, it was working perfectly fine before
I turned it off the other night.

Figured out the problem. Apparently the reset switch wire was
incorrectly color coded ... when I switched this wire, the PC booted
up fine. Thank you for your comments.
