PC not booting

Hey

I have a Gigabyte GA-P35-DS3L with a Q6600 but I can't get it to boot

at first I believed the problem to be with CPU but am unsure as I have a replacement and the same is happening

It basically starts everything up but nothing shows & there is no diagnostic beeps at all just a click from the speaker when it first boots up.

I'm wondering if this problem could be RAM related?

The reason I've been thinking this is that next to the RAM slots it states 800/1066 while I only have 533

Could anyone please advise?

yeah I've tried both, am going to try a friend's RAM tonight an see if that works as I believe he will have 800

checked my mate's RAM but it isn't 800 or 1066 mhz so can't check

would anyone think this would be the problem before I waste £50 on some?

planning on getting some tomorrow if so

It doesn't have tried it already

thought was the cpu at 1st but got that RMA'd

also the place I got it from showed it me working =/
