Are the hard drives spinning up?
If it was caused by the power supply failing, the MB could light up but
the drives wouldn't spin up...

I pulled the memory modules, one at a time and tried to boot up each
time without change. I disconnected the fans to better hear what's
going on and the hard drive is spinning up. The on/off switch works
consistently and holding the switch still allows the computer to turn
itself off. I reseated the CPU without change. It would be nice to try
a CPU/motherboard but I don't think I have any. How interchangeable
are they? The CPU is an AMD Athlon 3200+ and the motherboard is a
MS-7207; Version 1.0

Yes, but not as quickly as with 2 modules.
You should be able to get post messages without memory installed. If you
have nothing on your monitor, and have tried different video cards and
monitors, then it's either your motherboard or CPU. The only practical way
to test them is to replace them with known good parts.

I tried re-seating the ram without success. I even tried swapping them
over to the second set of modules. This is dual channel so is it
possible that one memory went bad? Can a dual channel computer run on
a single stick?
