Alright boys, this one is a bit of a mess. I came home, after being away for about 50 hours, to my computer (strangely) on, and the smell of coolant and hot electronics in the air. Immediately unplugged, opened up, and set it next to my AC for about an hour. Once it was cooled down, I investigated the inside of the case, and discovered coolant from the Asetek LCLC, on my AMD FX 8150, dripping down the motherboard, onto my HD 7770. I wiped it all off, cleaned it up as best I could, and hooked everything back up, with a spare CPU cooler I had lying around. I connected my video card to my monitor with HDMI, turned it all on, and my computer lights up, spins up, fans all on, but no display on the monitor. I've tried swapping the RAM, tried a different video card, beep tested the MB, tried a new PSU, all to no avail. Computer is on, but no display. Any idea what could be wrong? Is my motherboard dead?
