The problem:
With only my PSU, mobo, and CPU hooked up (removed from case on a cardboard surface) - when i press the power button, the fans give a twitch (almost a full spin) and nothing else happens. No movement, no speaker beeps, nothing.
When I remove the CPU, and turn the system on, all fans spin and continue to spin and it seems as if the computer wants to try and start up.
Troubleshooting process:
I tried a different PSU (knowingly functional) and the same thing happens.
I tried a different CPU (knowingly functional) and the same thing happens.
My assumption is the mobo has gone bad.
Any thoughts?
Please feel free to ask any questions and I'll answer with as much detail as possible.
Thanks you guys!
