Motherboard isn't damaged - I sent it back to tyan and they say it works fine for them. The processors are the only thing that I've not ruled out. I can't image that I'd get 2 bad processors together though....I've tried them both seperately. It'd be nice to find someone with a board that takes these new nocona chips so I could test mine out.

By "spins once" you mean the fans make about one turn and then stop?
Sounds like a bad power supply to me. I hope it hasn't damaged your mobo.
FreeGeek sells power supplies cheap. If you're friendly, the folks in
the thrift store might let you bring in your machine, test your power
supply there and try one of theirs.
