Motherboard or Power supply

[insanewhitekid]

I was replacing a fan in my case because it made a high pitched sound. I took it out to test it to make sure there wasnt too much pressure from the screws inside the case that were causing this noise. I unplugged one of the molex connectors from my gfx card to test it. It still made the sound so i plugged the molex back into the 2 molex to 6 pin connector and the computer shut off immediatly. Now when i hold down or just push the on button my led flashes and fans spin and stop repeatedly. Any Help would be just the best thing right now.

~Thank you

NEVER unplug or plug in anything except maybe case fans inside a computer with it powered up! Pull out the video card and see if the computer powers on. If it powers on you have fried the video card. If the computer still doesn't power on, the power supply should be changed before you suspect the motherboard
