Well i took a small trip to a friends house 2 or 3 hours drive. Everything is fine, i start up the pc once there for 10 minutes and i shut off and come back to home (otaku).

now the pc doesn't start up anymore.

check list
- little green led is on when plugged in to the wall (means motherboard is getting power)
- changed power cords
- inside the case, check all cords
- replugged in all cords inside the case
- check to see if the power bottom was plugged in to the motherboard
- made sure the power supply was plugged in to the motherboard

Anything I could have done wrong or forgot

maybe a list of cords i need plugged into the motherboard would be cool

Clear the Cmos and see if that helps

Maybe it's the power supply, that tends to be the first thing I suspect if a PC doesn't cut on.

I tend to agree with fgamer, I have seen PC's with a green power LED lit up on the motherboard but the Power Supply was cactus.

Edit: Check the heatsink CPU fan that may have a bad connection.

good call, it was the power supply.

I was gonna check the power supply and heatsink, but i had no extra power supply at the time of the post.

But i used my roommates and yea, it's the power supply. 50 dollars down the drain.

Thanks everyone. I gotta spend some cash now.
