Hello @Cesarito32 and thanks for posting on the Microcenter Community Forum. If the transferred build is not booting or posting there may be a incompatibility issue.
What is the error or error code you are getting a boot up?
What is the old pc make and model? What is the make and model of the case you moved it to?
-
I think it's a custom pc because i don't see a make and model. the error code on the motherboard is 0.2 and its put into a NZXT S340 which is a somewhat old case. the fans don't spin either
-
Looking up the board model on Google, it looks like the board was produced around 2004-2005, with the age of the board, we wouldn't be able to assist with repairs.
-
so should i just scrap the project because if i can't figure out why it wont boot i don't want to spend money trying

I really wouldn't see it to be feasible. You would be dealing with obsolete parts if you can find them third party/used online.
