This ensures you're not grounding on anything. Take out your PSU and connect to the motherboard. Power on by using a wire/screwdriver to short the power pins on the board. Check if you get video/beeps. Post your results and let us know. This is one of your first troubleshooting steps to make sure that you're not grounding on anything, and that you're not having a power issue where there's too much load. If you need to attach your graph card then do so - too lazy to look up the board model ATM. Check back on it tomorrow. |

Just throw a new board in since you need one anyway and see what happens. |
