Well, after making sure they're plugged in correctly, I'd try another power supply. It sounds to me like the 5v or 12v power supply rails that give out the molexes simply aren't getting power anymore.

If you can't test it out with another PSU, I'd take it back to Best Buy.

Yeah sorry about that as soon as I tried to come on to ask you lost internet connection... new with router and sonicrl didn't help me fix the problem until now.

I decided to take it back to Bestbuy even though there is power getting to the psu fan and the mobo fan so I'll just let it die peacefully. Thanks anyway
