The current issue is that after CPU, video card, ram, and psu are plugged in, i cant get it to turn on! The mobo light turns on, but no fans spin. I've asked for a replacement mobo thinking it was the problem, but nothing. I even had my friend who know more about computers try to get it to run.. nothing. I switched out the PSU thinking its faulty. Nothing. Switched out my rig case still nothing. He thinks the unit is underpowered. I dont know anymore, but i dont want to pay some guy $100 to tell me to replace everything. Here are my specs:<br /> <br /> Intel Core 2 Duo E6750 2.66GHz 4MB Cache, 1333FSB, 775pin<br /> Asus P5K<br /> Corsair TWIN2X2048-6400C4 2GB (2x1GB) DDR2 800MH<br /> Antec EarthWatts EA500 500 Watt ATX12V v2.0 Power Supply<br /> NVidia 8600gts<br /> Western Digital 36gb raptor SATA<br /> 1x dvd-r<br /> <br /> Please give me some suggestions before i pull what little hair i have left! I dont mind spending the money to find the right item and long as it works.<br /> <br /> thanks<br /> ariel
