    Well there is a light in the PC that is staying on is that aspose to be staying on expically when varnull said
    "If the HDD light comes on and stays on all the time you usually will find an incorrect jumper setting causing a conflict. That will cause a blank screen and no beeps."

    does that mean anything??

    The light is green and is on the motherboard and wont turn off.
