If you don't get ANY beeps from the machine, either the CPU (least likley) is borked or the motherboard is (probable considering its a ****ty ECS board)

It could be a problem with the ram aswell.

I had a machine once that did that due to a ram stick it didn't like.

Ditto, but it didn't like the stick because the connector pins were covered with crap ^^.

I bet he gave something some static electricity though.

is it onboard g/card or agp/pci-e.

Cause i now on some makes of mobo's you have to enable the apg/pci-e within bios.

But 9/10 its always the mobo that causes probs like this.

I've never seen that happen before. Usually if your ram is borked, the motherboard beeps.

Mine just stubbornly did nothing untill i cleaned the stick. Didn't even beep!

 

[Dataforce]

Why would you try and boot from the motherboard driver cd?
