I have a custom built rig I setup for my wife about a year ago and she disconnected everything and moved it while I was out of town and now it won't fire up, at all.

This is the motherboard.
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Prod [...] 6813127030

Checking the status code on the board, it was originally stuck to 83 I believe. Referring to the manual, the CMOS reset switch in the back had been flipped. and sure enough it had, so I swithed it back and now I only get status code 0.1 I tried resetting the bios via the jumper instead, waiting a good long 10 minutes for it to take. Then I removed the battery for an hour or so.

Status code message for 0.1 is Expand the Xgroup codes locating in physical address 1000:0

I have tried disconnecting everything except the power supply and CPU with the same result.

I removed all memory sticks but one, cycling them all in one at a time, same result.

Is my motherboard fried?

Any suggestinos on what to do? Should I send it back RMA if thats even possible? I'm inclined to just buy a new board, but I see the IP35 pro is no longer being manufactured and I can't find one for a decent price. Any recommendations on what I should get instead? I have a e8400 intel cpu and 9800gtx 512mb video card with 4 sticks of 2gb memory running vista 64.

Thanks for any replies.

What power supply do you have and when you turn it on what exactly does the machine do? I've use that board in my game server for over a year now and have move the machine to a new location last month with no problems.

It is a 750 watt power supply. Nothing happens when I try to power it on. It is stuck at status code 0.1. I tried using the on board reset and power buttons as well.

No fans power on or anything.
