Serious Computer Problem - Please Help!

[Bl00dFox]

Hey guys

I just recently assembled a computer for a friend - all went well. A couple of days later he brought it back to me with a problem - Nothing happens. When you turn in the computer, all the fans start, the MOBO LED lights up and the DVD drive lights up. Nothing comes up on the screen whatsoever. I am using the ASUS P5VDC-MX motherboard.

Can anyone please help?

if nothing comes up on the screen its prob the graphicscard or crappy psu

The graphics in this particular computer is integrated, so would it be the fault of the PSU as alpine suggested?

Thanks

Yeah is probs the GPU or CPU.

Just check RAM too.

Logically Thinking

isolate all the possible culprit,its better if you have a spare part of all the part

I tried using other RAM - it does not work.

OK, I will try all possibilities when I get home. I really think it is the PSU since i have one of those really cheap ones. Ill post back results.

Well I had a similar experience, I forgot to make sure my 4 pin processor power cable was plugged in tightly, try that.

dumb question but its not the monitor is it?

Unfortunately, replacing the PSU and the RAM does not seem to work. When the PC boots up, fans start, but nothing happens whatsoever. No beeps, nothing. Any idea?

Thanks
