1.Overview of the problem
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Computer simply won't turn on.
2.Full description of the problem and symptoms
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I built this system about 10 months ago and it ran like a champ. No OC'ing, nothing out of the specs. It literally was fine when I left (on stand by) and when I returned it was dead. I hit the pwr button - nothing....no fans, not even on the pwr supply.
3.Did it work normally at one time, or has the problem always existed?
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Rock solid for 10 months. Nothing new installed (the last thing I did was bring a folder of mp3s from a jump drive onto the desktop - hadn't even peeked inside yet.)
4.I already tried these steps:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Took the RAM and the pwr supply to Fry's and asked them nicely to check them out -both were good.
Outlets good too -and all the switches in the 'on' position. Also checked to make sure I was getting contact (pushed in all the cords.)
5.My software:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
◦Windows XP Media center Edition with everything up to date
◦Don't think other software details would be relevant to the issue
6.My hardware
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
◦Mobo GIGABYTE GA-X48-DS4 LGA 775
◦CPU Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600 Kentsfield 2.4GHz (not overclocked)
◦XIGMATEK HDT-S1283 120mm Rifle CPU Cooler
◦Video card VisionTek 900241 Radeon HD 4850 512MB l
◦RAM G.SKILL 4GB (2 x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 1066
◦Power supply Coolermaster real power pro 750w
◦also have a couple dvd burners
◦HD Western Digital Caviar SE16 WD6400AAKS 640GB
◦Case NZXT TEMPEST Crafted Series CS-NT-TEM-B Black Steel
7.Other information that might be relevant
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I've already established that the PS is not the issue (and already tried another PS just in case Fry's was wrong.)
I have another mobo but it's not compatible (and neither then would the cpu be.)
