    Cpu fan spins
    Chasis Fan spins
    All LEDs Start
    No display
    Abnormal bios beeping which goes Three short and 1 long beep .

    Is the motherboard properly instulated? Are all the little rubber standoffs on the motherboard where they're supposed to be? Make sure your PSU is fully connected and check to maake sure all of your different cards in all your slots are fully seated in the slots.

    *edit*

    also, is there adequate thermal paste on your CPU? sometimes it dries up and when you take off the CPU it crumbles away. I've had that happen to me. I start up and the mobo beeps, fans spin and stuff but it wont turn on.
