That's still an odd one while the board itself seems more likely then seeing two bad cards in a row there. The post problem with no default beep is the concern since even a weak supply would get far enough to hear that while general post tests on drives and loading Windows would pull it down.
That's the actual first thing there when starting a system up. If there's no static or odd noises when used in the other case it would seem to point at the board problem now being realized rather then the supply. But having a good supply always helps regardless.
