turned the pc on this morning... Did'nt boot hmmm. Monitor stays in standby. 
Unplugged everything except motherboard and G card power, still nothing.
Fans run, mobo light is green, no beeps, tried another old graphics card (pci slot lol) still nothing.
Is that going to be the M/B FUBAR or the CPU do you think.
I have another M/B to try as a next step but thought I'd ask here first as it's quite a bit of work to get that and replace it if it's not going to fix it.
(I don't have a spare CPU that is compatible with my current M/B to try)
I put a "spec me a new pc" thread up last month, so it looks like the time has been forced upon me to "go the whole hog".

Has anything come to light since I posted, that would make a better choice?
Your opinions on that thread too.
Credit card about to get a bending.
