Hi - at my wits end here, so I'd appreciate any help 
I built an HTPC around 9 months ago around the following spec:
Everything was OK till just before Xmas, (temps fine etc) when the machine refused to POST with no beep codes. Everything span up OK, but no POST screen.
Rather than RMA the mobo I bought a new one (Gigabyte GA-73PVM-S2H) that was certified for Vista (the I90HD wasn't). Still the same, no POST. Even with cards removed, optical & HD drives disconnected.
So then I RMAd the CPU which ocuk tested as working. Tried it again when I got it back. No POST.
I've also tried different RAM and the PSU from my main rig.
Anyone got any ideas apart from a skip?
