I retested the psu and found that the 3.3v rail is intermittent. I will replace the psu, if I can find one. Thanks, Donk..I will remember your troubleshooting help for next time. --- In a-1-computer_tech@yahoogroups.com, <d.knieriem@...> wrote: So the psu fan comes on, but absolutely nothing else happens? It def could be the motherboard. The psu checks itself and if it has no probs it sends an "ok" signal to the mobo to go ahead and boot. So the mobo is a prime suspect. Usually it'll do a series of beeps? Sometimes a device attached to the mobo might cause it. I would remove everything but cpu, ram, vid card, keyboard and mouse - and see if you get any action at all. If so then I'd add the device back one at a time to find the cause.

Also checked all connections from PSU to mobo, no problem there. Is it possible that the soft-on feature has gone wonky, and repair will mean replacing the mobo?
