Default New Pc Wont Boot Up

Hey guys, Thanks in advance for any replies.
I have just bought a new computer, thats been custom built. Its only the tower, No monitor or anything, I just got the case with all fitted components and a power cable.
I connected the power cable and turned it on... And nothing happend
I then tried connected the usual things, Monitor, Keyboard, And still nothing happens.

Ive contacted the people i bought it from, but still haven't had a reply. I heard that there were a lot of people with Brilliant computer knowledge here, so thought it was worth posting.

Many Thanks
MG

Hi MG, and welcome to the forum.

When you turn the power on, does the computer beep at you at all?

Hya MG333.

Maybe the pc has an extra powerswitch on the back? (On the power supply) Have you looked at that already?

Yep, There is no switch on the back of the power supply to turn it on/off. Ive checked the fuse in the plug, And it also works on my printer so i know the plug and that works fine...

Ok, one thing it could be - is the actual switch on the computer...it could be plugged in backwards on the motherboard.
