Hey guys,
I was just on my PC.. and I opened it up and took out my ubuntu hard drive, and plugged in my media hard drive. I then went to boot - No power seemed to be coming through, so I check if it was all plugged in correctly, and it seemed fine so I tried again - nothing. I then though maybe my PSU is dud, so I tried the one from my server, still nothing happened and my PC does not turn on..

It's probably not a lot of info, but could someone help out.. I have a project I need to take my PC tomorrow so it's urgent >.<

Did you turn off the computer first before taking the hard drive out?

Try holding the power button for about a minute.
lol unless you static-shocked something inside your pc when you were mess around, i doubt anything broke/died. My money is on that one of the cables isn't completley seated... either in the media hdd or you accidently bumped another component. Double and triple check EVERY connection


Also, try a cmos reset... a pita, especialy if you have custom settings, but a good idea if everything else checks out
