check all your physical connections before you try and figure out if something is broken, it's fairly likely and the easiest possibility.

To me it looks like you plugged a VGA power cable to your mobo. Check if there's any other 4pin connector that has no other 4 pin connectors branching out of it.

This happened to me.

The 6pin with a 4 pin branched off is definitely a VGA cable.
