When you say updates for motherboard, was this driver updates or BIOS updates?

Remove all of the addon cards (video card, sound card, etc.), RAM, and disconnect all of the drive cables from the motherboard. You should then only have the motherboard with cpu. Nothing else now be connected to the MB. Try to boot, you should get beep codes (error codes). If you don't, you have a failed motherboard, cpu, or power supply. If you do get the beep codes, then power off and reinstall the RAM. Try to boot again, you should get more beep codes, shut down and install the video card. Try to boot again, you should see a post error for missing HDD. Shut down and reconnect the HDD cable.
