won't boot

[Robert]

I installed winXP a few days ago now when I turn on the
computer I hear fans running bot nothing happens??
nothing shows on the screen and no beeps?? HELPPP!!

I doubt it's winXP it doesn't sound as though the PC is getting as far as
loading the operating system. Does the monitor come on as though its
detected a signal from the PC (even though you see nothing on the screen)
but its power light changes to fully lit. I would start checking cables and
connections first make sure everything is secure.

No light changes on the monitor and I did change vid
cards to see if that was the problem but nothing but fans
running?

Have you checked the memory is seated correctly, or perhaps the processor
has died. I think you will need to get back to basics and disconnect
everything except Floppy drive & Video card, disconnect all peripherals just
leave the keyboard connected. You should at least see the bios load & then
it should say missing operating system. (or words to that effect)
