There's the big power connection to the

familiar with. The motherboard I have has two additional 12V sockets
- one that's square-shaped and one that's the same format as drives
use. I plugged in both and had the same results as you - perhaps with
more fear, as I thought that flash was something blowing (having no
clue that the case has LEDs. :)
I unplugged one of those additional 12V leads from the motherboard - I
chose to unplug the drive-format one, freeing it up to power a drive,
keeping the weird square-shaped one plugged in. It then ran fine.
Apparently they are redundant, but you can only use one.
According to the Antec manual the square-shaped connector is the CPU
power connection. It is plugged in correctly.
If none of the above, I suggest
double-checking/experimenting with the
direction that the power/reset-switch leads from the case are plugged in.
I'll try that. I always get that sort of thing mixed up.
Thanks for the suggestions ! :)
Best,
