Computer wont start after power failure

[theinvisiblecar]

Hello,
Tom here...local power out for just a second, now computer won't restart. Can turn it on, it whirls, just nothing on screen, no beeps, like windows just doesn't load. Suggestions please?

First thing i can think of is clear CMOS by:

-remove all device from power source (monitor, speaker, etc....)
-Remove the CMOS battery for 5 min
-reinstall the battery
-Power on...

see if it helps

Try reseating your video card. Assuming you have the speaker installed to the MB you should be at least getting an error beep of some sorts or a message on screen.
