Do you get any beeps when booting up? What type of video card? What kind of hardware is plugged into the motherboard (hard drive, floppy, cd-rom, etc)? Can you tell if it boots up into windows? |

Sounds like the bios isn't preforming a post, otherwise it should give one beep. It might be the motherboard or the cpu is bad. Try reseating the cpu. If possible try the cpu on a different machine. |
