do you get any beeps? do you feel any heat in the cpu heatsink at all? barry

[ashly]

no, no beeps or heat from cpu at all....just put the cpu in different computer and it seems to be workig fine....i'm thinking the motherboard is toast...but it does power up and run my fans but thats it.

Take the mobo out of the case and try it in case it is shorting out against the case with just the ram and cpu in it and see if it posts http://www.sysopt.com/forum/smile.gif

Did you plug the power supply into the motherboard? If so check your case headers and see if you forgot to plug in somthing like the power switch!
