And an old TDK dvd-RW, 550W PSU, and a Thermaltake case

When I attempt to turn my system on its not posting. My motherboard has on board LEDs and the VGA led is staying lit and I'm not sure why. I've tried only one DIMM, each one of my DIMMs by itself. I've tried another video card (a GeForce 7600 GS). I've tried both video cards in a computer at worked, and both worked just fine. I've replaced the motherboard with the same model purchased at a local store.Tomorrow I'll be trying a different PSU, but if anyone has any other ideas please let me know.

Thanks

BTW the GPU fan is spinning up, and I've tried with only 1 DIMM, CPU, CPU fan, Graphics card and PSU to the same result, Its not POSTing with the VGA led staying lit.
 
yah, let us know how the new psu goes. have you done all that outside of the case? also, try re-seating the cpu. do you get any POST error beeps without any ram nor vidcard? (make sure you have a speaker onboard or attached) btw, these should all be in the troubleshooting sticky. ;)
 
Yes I've tried assembly on top of the mobo's box, and there is no on-board speaker and the one in my case is broken heh, still trying to figure out away around that.
 
So new PSU didn't help. I've done alot of searching now and it seems that the board may not natively support my processor, it does support it after a BIOS update unfortunately i do not have any other 1156 chip to throw in there to update the BIOS with. Any thoughts?
