After spending a week on this issue, I found this forum and am hoping for some fresh ideas.
This is the second board from Newegg(RMAed the first one). It won't POST. CPU fan spins up. When in the case, the case fan spins up, but no video. Screen remains blank. Does not post. I tried two different Athlon X2 CPUs,(4400+, 5400+) three different brands of memory (corsair CM2X2048-6400C5, 800Mhz, Crucial CT 12864AA667 8FG, Acer brand memory), 3 differnt power suplies and two different monitors connected to the VGA port. All these components worked in other systems.
Is there an issue with this board or something special that needs to be set?
My case is older. I connected the Power switch, HD LED connector, reset switch and speaker (but not the message connector) there were no beep codes at power up. I removed from the case and disconected the HD, DVD, etc. tried one stick of memory instead of two in all slots and tried all 4 memory slots in various combinations and singularly. I also reset the bios by pulling the battery and puting a jumper on the CMOS reset.
Is there something I am missing? Could I get two DOA boards?
Thanks for any advise.
