New Case.. Computer won't start!!!?

I changed my computer case yesterday...

My compuer have been running really good... so just decided to change off the case.

With Everything connected...

When I push the power on button, the Power Supply Unit will give a little buzz sound, and the computer stays turned off.

I thought the Power Supply that came with the case was bad, so I plugged in the Power supply that I was previously using, but same thing!

What's wrong!?

    To eliminate anymore unknowns, put your mobo and all it's drives back in the old case and verify that everything still functions properly. If there are no problems, then re-install back into the new case and be sure that the mobo spacers are installed properly, all power connectors are correct and the face indicator/switch wiring is properly connected to the mobo, i.e. power switch, reset switch, HD activity LED, Power LED, etc. Good luck.

    Clearly everything is not connected. Is the little red light on your motherboard on? If not, it means you have no power. Does the power supply actually turn on, or do you get nothing? Make sure you have connected the power supply properly and the line connecting the power button on the case to the motherboard.

    Could be something with the case wires. I have a case where I can't use the front USB cable because it's faulty. The power switch is working since you mentioned that, but it could also be an issue with the motherboard since you've tried 2 powersupplies. Those crappy powersupplies can do damage to motherboards.
