is this you're first attempt to powerup, i.e. has it worked before? if it is the first time, make sure the psu switch is on, all power cords plugged in, and if the power and reset buttons are hooked up.

edit: oops,l just noticed double thread, will re-post there.

Are the front panel connectors plugged in? Standoffs?
