At first my computer had no power at all so I bought a brand new power supply unit and installed it. Now it's got power but there is NO POST beep and nothing displays on the monitor. It just won't boot up. I've reseated the ram, the psu cable and ALL of the drive cables (including power cables). Even tried a new monitor. I've reseated (and even changed) the CPU and it made no difference.
I checked the motherboard and it appears to be alright to the naked eye.
Since my computer is Intel powered I replaced the old psu with an Intel/AMD compatible psu. The old one was 250 watts and the new one is 350 watts. I actually took the old psu with me so the "techie" could replace it with the appropriate one. I also have a Super-Flower psu and I connected that also in order to "eliminate possibilities". Nothing changed. This was the second working psu I tried. Keep in mind. the old psu didn't even supply power to the computer at all.
The fans and lights all come on (they did not come on prior to the new psu). The hard drive light stays solid, and does not blink like I assume it usually does.
I reset the CMOS by removing the motherboard battery and unplugging the computer from the wall. You got it..............nothing. I also tried two different hard drives...and still nothing.
Any suggestions?
