I am troubleshooting a friend's computer and something weird happens.
The computer starts, discovers the processor, checks the memory and...
nothing. Doesn't go pass the startup screen, and does not let me enter
the bios setup.

The computer is an old Shuttle SV24. There is absolutely nothing
plugged in at the moment. No CD, no HD, nothing (just trying to enter
the setup). I am running it w/ one PC100 stick of 256 MBs (according to
my research, this POS runs w/ either PC100 or PC133). It's not the
processor, I already replaced that.
Any clues?
Thanks,

-Facundo.

Try resetting the BIOS. Unplug PSU and clear CMOS.
