Building a pc for otherhalf and motherboard will not post. ASUS K8N-VM.

I have not used one of these before. Have unplugged everything, leaving only the CPU and fan connected. Power to the board but no bios post.

I suspect this is DOA?

Any advice appreciated!

Have tried with the memory in and have also reseated the CPU, fan, memory. This board has on board graphics so I should not need the GPU. Wondering though whether is worth pulling the graphics from my own pc to test?

The CMOS? Yes have just reset. I get the running LED On the board and fans spinning etc. I can't think what else to do!!!
