I'm having trouble finding any of the LEDs. There are no lights that

Yes, all mobos should have a power LED on the PCB, so you know when voltage
is going through it.

An empty MS Access "database" only has about 300-400 Kb overhead, unless the

You should be able to get post messages without memory installed. If you

monitors, then it's either your motherboard or CPU. The only practical way

Try unplugging all USB peripherals and taking out all unnecessary
adapter cards. If the power supply is failing, reducing the load on it
can help start up a computer ... sometimes.
Might try another keyboard and mouse too ... in case one of those had
gone bad.

Cannot boot up at all, nothing shows on the monitor so getting to the
