Certainly did Mr Mucks and flops did everything you said also disconnected the from the mains, switched off the power supply, removed the battery and switched it off several times and on with the boot switch to discharge any residual electricity in the MB to no avail, still nothing, zilch. After a little time cussing vehemently, swearing and banging head against brick wall decided I had spent enough time on the dam thing, took it all to pieces and rebuilt it still nothing, and went to bed in the small hours and cried like a baby, I think my wife bless her had enough of my frustration and bad temper that day.
Next morning went to Maplins and purchased a motherboard and CPU bundle Asus A88XM- Plus Motherboard, AMD Quad-Core A10-7700K Black Edition APU, and Corsair 2x4gb DDR3, runs as sweet as a nut
