GA-EP43-UD3L Motherboard works but Intel Quad Q8200 CPU and HSFdo not
Last response: in Motherboards
Not sure why, my Graphics card, case fan, PSU works but CPU and HSF does not. I reviewed the checklist, and intsalled the CPU, HSF and memory prior to putting in the case. After intsalling the CPU only and putting the power on I do not hear the beeping sound all my chasis and psu fans run.
Need advice.

Did you power up outside the case? That's your next step. Take it out of the case. Use just the cpu/heatsink, one stick of ram, video, and keyboard only. Connect the 2 power supply leads plus one to the video card if needed. Then touch the power switch area with a plain flathead screwdriver until it posts. Set your boot order, save and exit. Then remount the board in the case.
O1die, thank for the advice. I just finished POST-ing outside the case and I got the same results. MOBO leds 1234 and video card and PSU fans come on but not the CPU and HSF. Does this mean I have a bad CPU?

OK. I exchanged the mother board and the PSU. Powered up outside (the chasis) with CPU/Heatsink, one stick RAM, Video and keyboard, and used the flathead, the system did POST.
I put the MOBO back in the chassis, and in addition to the above, added one more stick of RAM, connected all chassis fans, the front panel power switches and powered-on. Smoke came out of the backside of the MOBO PWR_FAN connector and the ATX_2V connect, needless to say that I was back to my orginal situation, when I power up Video card, MOBO works except for the CPU and HSF.
So any advice as to why smoke came out?
bad psu?
mobo shorting?
Both?
Chasis touching MOBO?
Also hope that this episode did not fry my processor?
