Nope. No beeps whatsover. No video display. Nothing. The CPU fan runs
though and I hear some noise from the drives as I normally do. The D-panel
diagnostic lights are all red. The manual says that combo of colors
indicates a bad CPU but when I talked to MSI tech support last week the
tech said if I don't hear any beeps it's a bad mobo. But, 2 in a row? If
so, I think I'll return the board and go with some other vendor.
