Hey! My computer froze when I was working with it and now it won't boot at all. Only the power turns on when I try to boot it, nothing appears on the screen, not even bios, no connection with the screen and I can tell that windows is not loading even if I cant see anything. I have replaced the graphic card but it didnt help and I have unplugged CD-drives, HDD, sound card, network card without any results. I can't hear any peeps from the motherboard. What do you think is the problem, is the motherboard broke??

What kind of indication do you see of power?

All the fans spin, cds light up, HDD turns on.. but nothing happens, cant see any connection with the screen.

Do you have access to another computer/monitor? IF you do have you tried to see if the moniter works on another compter? IF it does work right, try and remove the ram chips carefully and see if it will boot, you should hear/ see something. If not it will be either the power supply or motherboard. If you have a P/S around I would try that first.

I have changed motherboard and memory. Now I can enter BIOS but I can't enter windows, it wont even start in safemode. BIOS finds the harddrives..

IF you are running windows XP you will have to reinstall it. Configure your computer to start from the CD-ROM drive. For more information about how to do this, refer to your computer's documentation or contact your computer manufacturer. Then insert your Windows XP Setup CD, and restart your computer. 1. When the Press any key to boot from CD message is displayed on your screen, press a key to start your computer from the Windows XP CD. 2. Press ENTER when you see the message To setup Windows XP now, and then press ENTER displayed on the Welcome to Setup screen. 3. Do not choose the option to press R to use the Recovery Console. 4. In the Windows XP Licensing Agreement, press F8 to agree to the license agreement. 5.
