Hi all,
Have an older P4 with Asus P4PE MB. Been running strong for like 8 years. Now when the power is pressed I hear a fan spin and the case lights light up. I see the CD drive light flicker, but that seems to be it. No monitor output or beeps.
So how can I troubleshoot this to find the bad component? My guess is PS, MB or CPU. But how can I get a good idea which? WIll the MB do anythingwith no CPU? No Memory?
I just want to swap out the parts without having windows make me reinstall. I can get the bord on eBay, but want to be at least somewhat sure it is the MB.
Thanks for any help.
