Okay so I have this problem, I just built this computer today and I've got everything put together and I don't know what's wrong. I have the power jumper on the correct one I think, and the power supply is working because the green LED on the motherboard comes on when I turn the PSU on. I don't really know what's wrong, anyone?

Do the fans spin up? Try clearing the CMOS.
Well first how about sharing the symtoms. Do the fans start ?? Does it attempt to boot??
Does it have video?? Is it completely dead other than the green power light?? Have you reseated the cpu?? Have you removed all cards including video leaving one stick of ram< does this change the problem?? [now attempts to boot but gives beep code due to no video] Any more info could help solve the issue

You probably don't have the power switch on the case connected to the right pins on the mobo, consult your mobo manual.
There should be a jumper on the motherboard to clear it. Here's a link to the manual http://support.asus.com/download/download.aspx?SLanguage=en-us&model=P5Q%20PRO Have you tried reseating your ram.

I just completed a very similar new build - Antec 900 + P5Q Pro + Corsair 750TX - and would check the following.
Do you have the 8-pin 12V power plug connected? Note that you need to remove the cap covering 4 of the pins on the motherboard and the combine the two 4-pin 12V connectors from the power supply into one 8-pin connector. See page 2-34 of the manual.
Are you using the Asus Q-Connector for front panel connections? And in the correct orientation? I found that made the pin connections much easier to make. See page 2-36 in the manual.

I have the P5Q Pro and only one 4-pin connector plugged in, I left the cap on the other 4. Seems to work for me. Whats the other 4pins for? My power supply only has one 4-pin for motherboard that I remember. Corsair 620hx
