Hello, I recently assembled a new PC and it doesn't turn on or show anything on the screen. After connecting the power supply and turning it on, the motherboard lights up and the power button LEDs activate, but everything stays off except for the LED light. Even after rewiring several times—checking the manuals and ensuring all connections are correct—and confirming compatibility of parts, including the backplate, I still face this issue. I suspect there might be something else at play. My PSU passed the paperclip test and all external components are working, but once I plugged in the 24-pin connector, it only worked for the LED light again. I think the problem could be related to the power button itself.

Also consider the 4/8 pin power connection to the motherboard. It might be worth testing it.

How would you test it? I saw the article about mixing up the cables (they're in the right place), but that's all I understand.

The article describes itself clearly.
