Ok so been out of the game for about 3-4 years give or take, in other words im just catching up with all the new hardware and stuff and basically learning again the little i knew before lol with that being said i installed a couple of new optical drives in my rig everything was fine till i noticed my power/hdd Leds werent coming on my Alienware case (no i didnt buy an Alienware just the case for $40), i opened it back up everything was plugged in properly but leds still didnt work so i was messing with the ac97 and hd audio connections on the mobo i was switching the HD audio connector to the ac97 connector, i basically yanked it out and on bottom left hand corner of the mobo a base screw was there but not the one that holds the mobo so as i yanked the mobo pulled back with the connection came loose and the mobo snapped back into place after that i closed back up turned my PSU back on, started my computer and Nothing... eveything powers up but no video switched video cards and still nothing. a friend said i might have fried mobo or cpu just coming here to ask community for help or to verify if i indeed fried mobo and/or cpu.

Thanks in advance,

Techno
 
Sufu is right that you should use a bloody period or two to end your sentences. Had to read your post 4-5 times to figure out WTF the issue was.

Anyway, check the stickied "Basic Troubleshooting Guide" on what to do when the PC does not POST. Follow the steps there and report back
 
Ahh damn, alright my fault then. i didnt realize i had that many run on's lol. Anyways thanks, i'll be trying that and reporting later.
