Blanco111 Posted March 7, 2015 Share Posted March 7, 2015 My 1200i powered up my new build computer a few months ago. I had to replace the motherboard (msi x99s sli plus) because I broke the original one (my fault). I left all the cables installed in the psu. Then when the new motherboard arrived, I replaced it and reattached all the cables. Then I had to wait for a new graphics card to arrive. Then I had to be out of town for awhile. This week, I attempted to start my new build (first time with new mobo and graphics card), but now the Corsair 1200i doesn't power up the computer. I do see a small "Power 1" button on the motherboard light up. But the computer doesn't start. The psu's fan doesn't start and no light comes on when I press the self test button on the psu. Can someone tell me what is wrong and how to fix it? This is my first build, so hopefully you will keep it simple. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Self test doesn't function when the 24-pin cable is plugged into the PSU. You have to disconnect that cable if you want to self test. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blanco111 Posted March 10, 2015 Author Share Posted March 10, 2015 Thanks for responding. Someone from tech support already told me that (in a way). I disconnected all the cables from the psu, and the self test light turned green. Now I have to start all over rebuilding the computer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
