So basically, I have had a terrible last three days, and I'd like to thank my new computer for that. Anyways, I've been having a lot of trouble with it as it is my first build, and I've probably invested almost 15 hours. Anyways, today I finally gave up, and took it to a computer store. The guy there said he'd try to fix it if he could. So, he switched one of the pins I think and it actually did turn on, but there was no picture. I took it back home because I didn't want to pay them $250 to repair it, and I plugged it in my monitor and it still turned on but no picture. So I took the guys advice and pretty much reseated everything, and then I discovered my graphics card wasn't plugged into my PSU the WHOLE time.
So I connected those two. So now that I'm done, it won't turn on again, and I have no idea what I messed up. I feel pretty crap about it to be honest. Any suggestions? Here is a screenshot of my fail.
