Power is coming on, all fans are spinning, but there is no POST, no "boot up beep".
Thanks again
If you have access to a voltmeter you could check the CPU voltage ! But take great care around the CPU PSU, there is over a hundred amps available there !!! You should see +5v on the input, +3.3v on the intermediate stage and around +1.5volts on the output. On some m/b there is no +5V and you only get the 3.3v and 1.5v on the output. The exact output voltage will depend upon the particular processor.
All the other voltages should be within 5% or better, of nominal.
