[SOLVED] Fans spinning and thats all!

Quick one, just to check whether my thinking is correct. Just looking at a broken PC,

motherboard is ECS 761GX-M754

Powers UP,
Tested RAM: OK
Removed graphics used onboard: same result / nothing
disconnected all drives: nothing
Cleared the CMOS: nothing

The person who brought this to me said he was cleaning the pc and he's probably shorted-out something. The problem is I am not getting any beeps and holding the power button down for 4 secs isn't working (strange)..

Busted MOBO? Power supply (even though it powers up?)
The drive is not spinning up as well

Thanks in advance for all your help

Re: Fans spinning and thats all!

tried with no RAM - same, not sure whether there is a system speaker - will take a quick look now again - I will now remove the PSU and try use it on my PC - if it works this will rule out the PSU. Back in 15 minutes

400W PSU
ECS 761GX-M754
AMD Athlon 64
1x512 RAM
Socket A / AGP now running Integrated video

No beeps from the speaker, no spin on the drives, cdrom does not open, PSU works ok with other PC.

I just want to rule out the CPU so I can get the 30,- pounds MOBO replacement.
