I believe this is a motherboard problem.. which is why I've posted it here.
I've just gone from AMD to Intel.
Motherboard : Asus P5B Deluxe WiFi (new from OCuk)
CPU : Intel Pentium 4 D 805 (new from OCuk)
RAM : SuperTalent 2 x 1GB DDR2 800 Mz (new from elsewhere
)
PSU : Emermax SLI 600 W (old but tested)
GPU : XFX Geforce 9800 GTX (old but tested)
What happens is when the power switch is pressed the fans move for a split second...and then cuts off. I've attached the extra 12V from the PSU to the MB and I know the PSU has enough juice.
It's not the case of the Mobo shorting out on the case since I've set it up barebones outisde of my PC.
I am at a loss as to what the problem to could be. If one of the new components is faulty which is it likely to be ? Gfx card and PSU I've tested out on my AMD system but I can't test the DDR2 , CPU and MB.
There are no beeps or anything.Any help would be appreciated.
I've tried one Ram stick at a time but no change. Which is why I am leaning towards the RAM modules not being the cause of the problem because chances of them both failing are lower...
CPU fan is also attached properly.
