Troubleshooting dead board

[Helltech]

I'm not 100 percent sure what happened. Was mining (have been mining for a month or so no problem) and my computer shut off. I thought that odd, turned it back on was working lovely jubbly. Then it shut off again after like 15 minutes. Now anything plugged into the PSU works just fine, PSU is fine, but anything plugged into the motherboard doesn't work. CPU fan doesn't turn on, and ergo the computer obviously doesn't do anything. All the lights on the motherboard are on just fine. Went down to one stick of ram with no help. Unplugged everything except one RAM stick and CPU fan, nothing. No beeps from the speaker either.

Sounds like it overheated or something. Are you sure your mobo has a speaker? It's possible a powersurge fried your mobo, do you use a surge protector?

The fan not spinning is a bad sign. Generally with a bad board, everything will come on and spin like normal. If you have a speaker hooked into the board and take out all the memory, if the board is good it will beep.

Also, you can take off the header for the front switch and jump it yourself with a screw driver. Your PSU could be bad as well.

Like I said the PSU turns on. Jumping the power connection leads to the same thing, PSU turns on, everything plugged only itn othe psu turns on (a couple case fans) the CPU fan does not come on, only one stick is plugged in, GPU is unplugged.
