Is there a error message you can share with us?

Further to @FreeBooter good question, make sure the optical drive is empty.
Keep pressiing F11 on boot and select the correct HDD, for the system to boot, from the menu.

Which Fan did you replaced?
How exactly did you “hooked up the 2 HD’s. & the DVD”?

What happens exactly, does for example the computer power up but you get no display or does the computer power up but you get a boot failure message on the screen

I get a power up & no display

Are you sure all power is supplied to the motherboard?
Main and auxiliary cables are connected?

I have gotten similar response if the CPU was damaged, or the auxiliary power to the CPU was not connected.

It was the psu. I reinstalled the old one & now it boots up with a DVD iso image from Microsoft, but it is all in Korean,so I have to look for an English one.

Here’s how to check the old one: How to Check a Power Supply: PSU Tester, Paperclip, & More
