WTF man! You're a 12 year old perl programmer. Building a computer is like playing with legos by comparison. You need to have brain cancer to screw up something in todays world of oversimplified, overprotective hardware. Just plug everything into the only port it fits into! When my college roommate built his first computer he couldn't figure out why it wasn't booting up. He later figured out it was because he had plugged the power supply into itself (it was a modular power supply). Turns out the power supply had a failsafe for that. This prevented it from outputting power in the event that that happens. So all he had to do was unplug that one chord and it was fine. That's how hard they (companies) try to make their parts idiot proof these days.
