Hi. I recently ordered a new case, because I thought my old case had a problem. The power would turn on, but it only gave my motherboard power for 2-3 seconds. So I ordered a new case.

With all the motherboards I've thrown in this case it does not start up. All 3 motherboards I used, use to work in my old case before I had the power issue I talked about above. I do not think the new case I ordered is defective because my friend ordered the same case and same problem.

Case:

Motherboard:

What power supply are you using? (Someone block out his email and aim name, spam bots will nab it soon =/ ) Sounds more like a power supply issue than a case or mobo issue.

Could it be something with your power supply? Even possibly your overloading it with too many peripherals? I would suggest trying another power supply if you can.

The only reason I can think of why a case would keep your computer from turning on would be maybe the button to turn it on sticks. If it doesn't, your case shouldn't be the problem. Hope this helps!

I agree, if possible, unplug some unused things in you case (floppy drive, extra fans) and see if you can boot then. If not, I'd try to replace the power supply.
