hi, i am in the process of moving my PC's components from an old case to an antec p180.
The problem I'm having is that after hooking everything up as described, I can't turn the system on. Strangely, the power supply is whirring away like it's on, but there is no power going to the machine to turn it on. I tried pressing the front power power/ reset buttons on the case and they do nothing.
The noise and no response got me worried; I was afraid I may have bricked my PC, so I moved everything back to the old case and turned it on and it was all working fine, no harm seems to have been done.
So, could the problem be the antec p180's front bezel connectors are defective? Everythng works when connected to the old case, technically all I'm doing is moving my components to the antec so the case must be the cause, and the only impact the antec has on the operation of the PC really are just those front bezel connectors.
Sorry if this doesn't make sense, it's a bit hard to explain.
