I ordered a watercooling system after my air cooling system broke.  

I figured I would just get a mid-range water cooling system, rather than a high-end air based system, and spend about the same amount, but have less noise.

I ordered this system, and can not get it to work.

Ive got it powered up, and it would seem its working, and I have it super tight against my processor, I just think there is something about my mobo that it doesnt like.  

I have an ECS 770 with a Phenom 9600, and I think the mobo only has one powered system fan port, and the cooler needs two.

Im thinking that the pump isnt working, but the radiator is.

Im not entirely sure, all I know is I followed installation to the letter, and its not working.

Any suggestions?

Need more info. Is it over heating or something? Did you use thermal paste? I just don't see how a water cooling wouldn't work.

Of course I used thermal paste.

I installed it to the letter.

I ended up returning it to buy a Blue Orb.

Its really quiet, and its actually working.
