Last night I assembled a new pc with:
*GIGABYTE GA-MA78GM-S2H AM2+/AM2 AMD 780G HDMI Micro ATX AMD Motherboard (Revision 1)
*AMD Athlon 64 X2 5000+ Brisbane 2.6GHz Socket AM2 65W Dual-Core Black Edition Processor
*OCZ StealthXStream OCZ500SXS 500W ATX12V / EPS12V Power Supply
Installed the motherboard, PSU, memory, and the power comes on, cpu and system fans spin, but no beeps and no post. The only thing that works are the caps lock and num lock lights on the keyboard, and optical mouse is getting power.
I switched memory around and took all of the memory out ... nothing.
Also took out the MB and replaced it, hooked up everything, and nothing.
Once it is powered up pressing the power button has no effect, and the dvd drive's light goes on but won't open.
I did some searches on this, and seems it is either the CPU or MB, but there's no way of narrowing it down short of testing with an extra cpu or mb - which I don't have.
Any advice??? Gigabyte's support starts in a few hours.
BTW, one of the first reviewers on Newegg had the same exact problem.
Thanks!
