THanks again for the help man.
 
The thing you have circled in red is another COM (serial) port. It doesn't need to have a header attached to it.

The front panel connector is sort of proprietary, so it's kind of hard to tell you if it is connected properly.

But yeah, not having your RAM in all the way as dualblade pointed out may keep the system from POSTing properly.
 
I got it fixed guys...I just unplugged everything and plugged it back in and it worked... I think that I could have had the hard drive in secondary ide instead of primary so that messed it up...

Thanks again
 
congrats your hard work payed off.now do it again and see if you can get it on the first............................good luck
