Out university has hhad a failure rate on antec 450w psu of 40-50% over 4 years (total number of pc:s with this psu was approx. 300). Check your motherboard with a known-to-be-good power supply.

Unfortunately, there are not many parts available off the shelf to repair these. It would be simpler to get a power supply with a greater wattage rating than the one you have now.

What kind of Internet connection do you have DSL, Fiber, Cable? do you have a modem? Do you have a router? Are you connected via Ethernet cable or wireless? In order to start any diagnosis I need the answers to these and maby some other questions

Who's power supply?

What do you need to know about the "Wiring"?

Look at event log of Windows under management for any errors. Also run speedfan and check out your temps to make sure that its not a temp alarm for the CPU etc.

What about it?

So what do you need?

Do not understand the question

And what might the problem be?

I don't understand the question! Maybe Black, White, Green. I do not quite understand what you need to know.

For 120 volt operation use black for the hot, White for the natural, Green for earth ground. For 240 volt operation use; Black and White for the 240 volt and Green for earth ground. Black is generally designated as the "Hot" or "positive" . You must make sure the switch on the power supply is set for the voltage you are using. ie: 120/240

Recheck all your board connections. I missed a connector by one pin and got nothing as you have. Once I realized my mistake and re connected the plug on to the board correctly everything worked.

so check the cable.... some computers beeps because something is plugged not correctly.... I guess it's memory .... try to remove and plug in back memory cards

If everything is working, those wires may be extra for expansion needs. There are several wires not connected to anything inside a PC

not enough power in power supply perhaps.reset the cmos by removing battery (small one on motherboard, size of a quarter., Connect the two pins together for 10 seconds where the battery goes, this resets most cmos passwords and back to factory.make sure is all unplugged and hold power down to drain from capacitors first.remove all usb stuff and try to reboot before doing this, sorry is step 3, 2 1...Get the CMOS bios onto a flashdrive and hold down fn and F1 while rebooting may have to hold for 10 mins.remove ram and check power supply specs on the side of it and see how many watts is output - check youtube for proper reset procedure as this I am only vague about. Note that there are like 22 pins and 24 pins power supply units.a key may be stuck on the keyboard or a cable iis not properly in.it's slot.usually the amount of beeps and flashes are an indicator of the problem.
