Dear Forum,
The last 8 computers I have built have posted on my first attempt. I was bound to eventually run in to some bad luck sooner or later and it hit me tonight.
I bought parts to make my wife a computer and I can't get the MOBO to post.
Here is what I got:
■Antec Trio 430 Watt PSU
■ASUS M3A78 Mobo http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813131340
■AMD 64x2 6000 CPU (89 Watt)
■4 Gigs of GSkill DDR800 Ram
■Seagate 500GB SATA hard Drive
■ASUS SATA DVD Drive
■Corded mouse and keyboard
■EVGA Nvidia 9500GT video card
When I press the power button all of the fans come on, the hard drive sounds like it engages. Both the power and HDD LED lights up on the front of the case.
However the monitor never comes out of sleep mode and the laser never comes on the mouse.
The computer never 'Beeps' even once. All you hear is the fans.
I have tried the ram in different slots.
Still no post.
Any ideas or suggestions would be appreciated.
