give us a description of all the components please mate.

1/. It's plugged into a wall socket yes?
2/. the little switch on the psu is turned on yes?
3/. Does the LED on the m/board light up?

are the front panel buttons hooked up to the right pins on the motherboard?

 

[Ty_Lawrence]

yes everything is hooked up. NO there is no led light on the motherboard.

If the LED on the m/board isn't lit up then there are two options

1/. dead psu
2/. dead m/board

You can check the psu by grounding the green wire, if it is good it will fire up and if it does then the m/board is the culprit

Obviously if it doesn't then the psu is faulty.

How would you ground the green wire??

If you're still unsure I would suggest seeking help from a pc/electronics repair store.
