yes speaker is connected u said red and black wire right

i have a solarmax model x2-250
300 watt

Yes red and black and on the ends it will say speaker with a plus and minus, check the manual for correct orientation

Remove the ram and power on the system, does it beep? This is the same as if there is a bad video card the system will beep indicating no usable memory. If no beep this can sometimes indicate a bad mobo. Just let me know if it does beep or not this is not definate yet.

Its late, I will check out the psu and get back tomarrow

i did some quick checking and could not find any info on that psu so that in itsellf makes it suspect.
Is there anyway you can try another psu?

I'll check back tomarrow pm

[fioreskater]

well i did some research and solarmax arnt really good psu's but if its able to make a hard drive go on :\ i dunno would the psu cause my system not to boot?

[Doby]

Yes a psu can cause a system not to boot, if you have a digital voltmeter we can test it but it would be easier to swap a different one in.

I think at this point you need to troubleshoot the psu and then move on from there.
