Dead Motherboard??

[Guest]

Please Help??
I have an A7v8X ASUS motherboard. Whilst waiting for a new hard drive to
arrive to replace the previously failed one (even though it was only 2 weeks
old) I changed the CPU fan (and heatsink) for a quieter one. When I plugged i
the new one the computer powered up but wouldn't boot. Fans were turning,
could just about make out a sound or too from the hard drive (not sure) but
the monitor was lifeless apart from the standby light.
Tested the PSU voltages and got the following:-
Purple 5.28V
Green 5.28V dropping to 0.08V on power up
Grey >2.4V
Orange rising to 3.98V
Red rising to 5.2V
Yellow rising to 12V

Does this sound like a faulty motherboard?

Can anyone help pinpoint the problem- all help gratefully received -
thanks!!

I don't know what it sounds like, but it sure doesn't sound like a .NET
programming question.

You will have much better luck posting in a hardware related newgroup.

will relocate it now - thanks!
