Unbootable PC
I have a motherboard that I am trying to get to boot up, a Biostar 8500TVD-A with a P133 in it, 32 MB RAM that I can't get to boot. I have tried it inside and out of the case, with 3 different PSUs, and have not heard any POST beep codes (it uses AMI BIOS). I have tried 2 different video cards that work in other PCs and tried them in all 3 PCI slots. Is there any hope for this motherboard, or is it dead for good? Could it be the CPU?

Never mind, it was a dead processor

Have you tried: different RAM, CPU or Vid cards... sounds like your RAM is dead!
Just try this.
computer with:
Power supply
Video Card
2 sticks of ram
no drivers (floppy or HD)
No other cables attached
If it doesn't boot then try other ram. If that doesn't boot then your M/B is dead.
