I'm showing the no signal on my display, no keyboard power, no beeps on my self built PC. Msi main board, Athlon fm2 CPU, ripjaw ram. All fans run, lights work, disk drive functions. I took out my gforce card and pluged the VGA to the main board, nothing. I took everything out to test for beeps. I get NO beeps at all. I tried dumping the main board setting new battery, its been thoroughly cleaned. I can only come up with two things. Ram gone bad, CPU fried, but would think id seen signs of that, like shutting off on its own. Or bs board. And yes it had worked before. Ran for a year.
 
Solution
Take ram out, see if it beeps then, otherwise id say yeah, the board is shot.

I wouldnt buy a MSI replacement, Ive had no good experiences with them personally. If its only a year old though... RMA it should have a 3 year warranty. (Id personally sell it after i got it back though)
