Ok i've killed my asus m2n32-sli dlx wi-fi

i've pulled the battery and moved the jumper over to reset it, didn't help.
( all power cords were removed )
i've tryed powering on while holding down del.... nothing.
i've tryed powering on while press alt f2 ( for the bios restore ).... nothing.

i get no beeps nothing, all the fans power up to full speed, hard disks spin up monitor says no connection and thats it.

no lights on the keyboard....

Any idears i've scanned the manual but can't find any thing.

I've got an 5200+ x2 with 2 1gb dommator sticks and a 850 watt power supply.

All i did was try and send a new pic to the bios ( u can get it to display a pic instead of the testing/splash screen.....

Please help

could have done a bad flash!
Not sure if the chips are removable on these motherboards, you might need to sent the board back to Asus.

Sorry for being not much help.

poop, might have to find some one with the same board and borrow it so i can boot off that chip then pop mine back in and flash it..... again

I dont think it has to be the same board, you just need a compatible bios chip for a hot flash.

it just wont work that way, only solution is to buy a bios chip, or RMA, and if you were going to borrow a chip off someone and booting off that and then replacing that with yours while computer is on your mobo will surely be severely damaged that way

No reason why a hot flash won't work if it's a removeable chip.

you can try putting your chip in a mates mobo and see if its boot up first

im not saying hot flashing wont work, its risky and can damage, if i were him i would just buy a new chip if its a removable

Well i work with a mate that has the same board as me ( same setup, copy cat !!! )
so i'll have to look tonite to see if the chip is removeble......

Wish me luck....
