    Alright so i bought this barebone on Amazon, it is brand new not used. So i assume its not broken I just have something in wrong. I put in the processor(T9400), Hard Drive(200gb 7200rpm seagate), DVD-RW Drive(Dell) and Ram(Corsair 667 mhz). I tested these all on my OCZ DYI barebone, Everything works fine. Though the DVD-RW Drive is to small, i got it from dell. I'm not sure if that could possible be the problem. It is somewhat stuck in the MSI barebone and i can't get it out lol. Whenever i try to turn the MSI barebone on, the power button lights on for a few seconds and then i hear a beep then it goes off. If i leave it plugged in when i turn it on it does the samething then turns back on and stays on but nothing else happens. No display or anything. I'm wondering if anyone knows what the problem is.

    I found out its not even beeping at all, it is just the sound it makes when it turns off. The moon looking sign on the bottom is always on when i try to get it on. I don't know what it means though.
