When I press the power button the power on and reset leds flash, then nothing. With the case off I can see a surface mounted yellow led illuminated and a surface mounted red led illuminates when I press the power button. I'm guessing the psu is faulty but have not be able to turn it on using a connection between pin 8 and ground of the atx 20 pin connector with both the atx 4 pin and the 20 pin connectors disconnected from the mobo (in fact with all the connectors disconnected from the computer).
Power supply is easier to troubleshoot my local pc shop has used ones for $5 or if you have one laying around make sure you have one with the proper mobo connector 24pin will sometimes fit 20 pin as long as there are no transistors to close to plug just turn pc off unplug all drives and mobo plug in good supply and turn on if it works thats the problem if not probably mobo

I have an ASUS 8bne motherboard. The Hard Drive LED wasn't working after my son did some fiddling, so I switched some of the connections around according to what was printed on the motherboard, and now the power switch doesn't work. Is there a diagram somewhere that shows how the connectors are supposed to go?
