I just upgraded with a brand new motherboard, processor and ATX case: Althon XP 2000+ on an ECS K75Sa.
Now nothing starts. The power comes on, the system and CPU fans come on, and the disk lights come on, but nothing else happens.
There is no BIOS screen in fact nothing appears on the screen at all.
The processor worked the day before on the old system as did the harddrive ( also only a few weeks old ).
I actually had some other processors to switch and test.
I also was able to switch to a spare video card to make sure I hadn't shorted that out somehow.
I even tried clearing the BIOS as instructed in the motherboard documentation.
But I get nothing. The screen is black. I have built other systems before but I have never seen this. I am completely baffled.
Does anyone have any suggestions?
