I just installed a brand new ultra x-connect 500w power supply and had everything hooked up perfectly, but when i went to boot up, when windows was supposed to load, all i would get is a black screen, can anyone help?
 
it does everything fine, but when windows is supposed to load, i just get a black screen and nothing more? do i have a bad connection from psu to hdd?
 
Maybe everything got deleted off the HDD (including windows) when you hooked up the PSU (like a power serge).
 
If it was deleted it would say something like "Unable to boot from harddrive. Please insert disk and press any key to continue" So I would say that the harddrive isn't wiped but it may have other issues.. You didn't change jumper settings or anything did you?
 
...or something altered the boot sequence, go in ur bios and check that the hdd with the os on is set to boot either before or after the cd/floppy drives.
