CPU Fan Comes on for 5 seconds then stops

I had a brown out about 2 weeks ago. Ruined my old computer. It was doing the same thing, would start then die. So I bought a new motherboard, CPU, RAM, video card, and power supply. Put it all together and its doing the same thing the old computer was doing! With all new parts! Any ideas? I have built about 6 PCs in the past, I have tried everything: BIOS reset, removing different parts, remounting CPU and fan, unmounting board from chassis, moving RAM sticks around... I have taken it apart and put it back together about 20 times. Any ideas? Could my power be bad in my house?

I found the issue. Bad front panel switch. Oh well, my old windows computer needed a hardware refresh anyway. Damn computers.

Apologize for the delay in response.  You beat us to fixing your own issue lol.  But in hindsight, yeah the only thing that wasn't swapped was the chassis.  Bravo @showard351!  Time to get some new goodies
