    if you have done everything as to now fixed board than it could be bad board, clear the cmos & see what happens but other than that find the reciept & take it back if still under warranty unless you want to do same thing with bios as you did to fixed board

    yes i tryed everything.... but i could narrow it down to the board like i did onmy computer but on this computer it could be the procesor because it had the same problem on anotherboard andi otld the lady it was prolly the board and she got a new board and now still has the same problem so am hoping ists not the processor but if it was the procesor the ocmputer would not turn on right ? bcuz it won't get past the POST. its jsut weird 2 motherboard have the same problem...btw what is doing is you hit the power button and fans , cpu fan pw supply turn on , but no video , i know its not video card , ram bcu i lareay been trought alot of diferen parts

    can you put cpu into your system if possible & try different power supply. have you tried clearing cmos & is cmos jumper in right spot. do any of the electrolytic capacitors(cans) look domed

    yes but without trying on another working board it is a 50/50 choice of which is bad, cpu, motherboard or both. what make & model# of board so i can look at manual

    Hey

    What kind of memory are you running? Please be specific.
    Any 478 pin Intel CPU(Celeron) will work in that board -- can you test with another CPU?

    Do you get beeb codes?

    That board is compatable with 1.5v AGP cards only.
    Have you tried PCI and do you have a Bios setting to choose which bus you use(PCI or AGP)for video?
