What's the problem with my comp?

Hi everyone, I just set up my new system recently and it won't start up...strange actually i did everything accordingly here's my full sys specs:

AMD 1700+ Tbred w/ L12 mod & SLK-900A w/ AS5
ABit NF7-S Rev 2
Mushkin PC3500 Level II 1 GB RAM
1-40GB WD400JB
1-120GB Maxtor
1-Lite-On DVD-ROM
1-Lite-On CDRW
Sunbeam Rheobus with 5-80mm Cooler Master Fans
Antec True430
Kingwin KT436
SBLive! 5.1 sound
ATi 9700 Pro AIW
That's all i think is in my system.

Now here's the problem: As soon as i turn the power supply ON the RED LED on the NF7 lights up bright red no problem. My LAN even lights up. Then I go to hit the power button and FLASH one quick flash of my fans LED's turning on then the comp just stops there...on for like a split second...Anyone have suggestions as to WTH is going on with my comp? I'm going to go and try out only using the bare minimum then report back.

Did you bork the L12 mod on your CPU? Can you swap a CPU with one of your friends to see if that's the problem?

So I unplugged everything except for the HDD and still no luck

Try another cpu? hmm I was thinking about it but it's kind of a hassle...I guess it's the only real way to tell whether or not the system actually works....gonna try that out right now

Ok, I just swapped in my Barton 2500 and still nothing...I'm a tad bit worried....hope fully i didn't fry a part on my comp...what could be the problem?

Finally i've come across the problem...my vidcard managed to die on me and i dont know how... :\ Maybe static when i was touching and moving it over....anyhow time for an RMA

good luck with the rma. i assume you swapped in another vid card to make sure that was the culprit?
