No beep, no display at boot

Mychelms, on Sunday June 1, 2008 01:05:12 PM
Hello,


Intel Core 2 Duo E8400 Wolfdale 3.0GHz 6MB L2 Cache LGA 775 65W Dual-Core Processor - Retail
Asus P5N32-E SLI PLUS LGA775
Gigabyte 512MB 8800GT PCIe
OCZ StealthXStream 600 Watt Gamers Power Supply Unit - OCZ600SXS-UK
CT2KIT25664AA667 4GB kit (2GBx2), 240-pin DIMM (this is the correct memory module i used crucials tool to get it)

I havent even bothered trying to connect anything else to this until i resolve the current problem. I have tried everything, replaced the motherboard tried one memory stick at a time and still nothing. I turn the system on and the fans work everything lights up but my flat screen just goes back into sleep mode and no beeps at all.

(when i had the harddrive fitted it had a red light next to the power button on the case)

I know if there isnt any beeps its failed its "post" and what i got from other forums is it maybe the bios needs upgrading but the asus website is down and how would i update the bios if the screen isnt working!?!?

I have to use the graphics card to put the vga socket in using the dvi adaptor as there isnt a vga slot fitted on the motherboard, i have checked and triple checked the connections everythings fitted fine.
Configuration: Windows XP
Internet Explorer 6.0

it's either your CPU fried or the RAM sticks. Unplug all the RAM sticks and try plugging one in at a time see that the computer will boot. If not then your CPU.

Hello,


Check your bios.
You need to upgrade your bios in order to support your cpu.
Asus has published a new bios version compatible with your cpu.
Try with another compatible cpu. Your motherboard accepts the following cpus :
P4, Core 2 duo, core 2 quad.

Download the latest version of your bios (1404) save it on a usb key or cd then keep the usb key plugged in, restart your machine and boot into bios go to tools « asus ez flash� ».

After the upgrade put back the original cpu in place.

Don�t forget � Google is your friend �

it might not be the cpu. exact same problem as stated above. except im running core 2 duo.
lots of people have powered down to never power back up. I have replaced PSU, GPU.... I'm deciding to replace either the RAM or MB next..

it should beep if it was the CPU.. This one has me stumped... the pc was rock solid until i shut it down one day.
