Hi all,

warm but no display from the monitor so maybe the mobo?.


TIA

Nope, no beep's from the mobo. I did drop the mobo a few day's ago, I think
that buggered it lol.

Take the cpu out, keeping the fan plugged in, and then turn on the pc.
If pc springs to life (fans spinning up) then chances are it's the cpu
that's the problem.
