TOOL KIT Hint: Go to Wallies world (Walmart) purchase a $5 digital multi meter.. remove from packet.. switch to the V position.. now black probe goes to a pin in a Molex plug that has a black wire going in.. now the red one .. when attached to the red wire.. should read 5V and when attached to the Yellow Wire.. should read 12V.. if these are dramaticly different like 0V.. then you have a PSU failure or .. the MOBO has a confused BIOS.. reset bios.. check the 2032 battery should read 3V or so (not <2.95V)
BTW.. Anti Static Mats are CONDUCTIVE.. not a good idea either
cheers
