Mod Edit - One thread per topic is the rule; cross posting is considered bad manners and gets threads locked.

If you'd like me to move your other thread to G[H], shoot me a P.M..... :cool:

Thanks - B.B.S.
 
is that one stick of ram or two? try just one ram stick. If that doesn't work, leave one stick of ram out, unplug the HD, Optical drives, and just see if you can get into the BIOS. Good Luck..
 
had both in, thought maybe they were not acting correctly in dual channel, so i did put one in, still not working. also tried switching the power molexes around ( ive had it work in the past lol), but still nothing. im dieing here guys!
 
DO you have a multimeter? you could check the power of the molexes powering the mobo...you would have jumpstart the powersupply to get it on and then check the voltages.

It really seems like the MOBO is bad, however if the PSU is crappy, then it might not be enough to power the VIDEO card....Hopefully someone can help...sry man...I had a couple problems getting the rig in my sig to run properly (burned a few opticals and fried an audio card), until I figured it was the power supply (the friggin company had reversed one of the molexes to where I was getting 5 volts out of the 10 volts and vice-verse.).

EDIT: did you try with out the HD and the Optical plugged in? because if it doesn't quite have enough juice it will stall the PSU...so if you dont have those powering it may be enough to get the video on....but then again the MOBO is lighting up and the fans are working....Im not familiar with that card, but i am assuming it has a fan on it....does the fan comeon when it is powered on?
