I'm trying to piece together a 2nd pc

gigabyte ga-7va-c
athlon xp 2000+
512mb pc2100 ram
ti4200
nic
eagle 450w psu

i turn it on...all the fans come on (incl cpu fan) and it shuts off after ~6-7 seconds.

what could be causing this?
 
so far, i've swapped out

RAM
hd
cdrom

and it still happens :/

i put the mobo on an anti static bag and tried booting it up. it just shut down in the same time :(

so its either the cpu/mobo/psu
 
somehow it starts up now, but no video.

i've swapped out everything except cpu / mobo.

i tried to boot it without a cpu in the socket and nothing happened even then.

dead mobo?

anyone?
