Everything but the RAM has been replaced, but a friend put it in his PC and it ran fine. :huh:

...would a dead CMOS battery be causing any of this?
It's possible. I read your thread a while back and I meant to suggest trying to replace the CMOS battery. Sorry I didn't post that before you bought another CPU. But you also said you got a new mobo. Seems hard to believe that the new board would also have a dead battery. But it's possible.

BTW, I had a similar experience as you with my MSI board. I went through 5 boards before getting one that worked. The last two boards were refurbs. I then finally bought a new board from a local store and so far it was worked flawlessly.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-motherboard-Pulling-my-hair-out-here-16396930 Wed, 28 Jun 2006 17:23:55 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-motherboard-Pulling-my-hair-out-here-16396907 http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-motherboard-Pulling-my-hair-out-here-16396907 Wed, 28 Jun 2006 17:21:13 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-motherboard-Pulling-my-hair-out-here-16396826 --

Reset the bios and it restarted, but hold the power key in for at least 8-10 seconds the first time after you do so.

If using the jumper to reset the bios, remember to change it back before giving up on the MB.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-motherboard-Pulling-my-hair-out-here-16343731 Wed, 21 Jun 2006 01:17:46 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-motherboard-Pulling-my-hair-out-here-16343235
Could it be possible that during the transfer of the Mobo, that there was a momentary Short between the Mobo and the case/Standoffs that caused corruption of the CMOS?

Try Clearing out the CMOS settings with the Motherboard's CCLEAR Jumper, or by removing the CMOS Battery for 15-20 Minutes or so, and see if that brings it back to life...

A Misplaced standoff will cause a short to ground between the Mobo and the case, and prevent the Mobo from POSTing (or in the worst possible case, causing actual Damage to the Mobo itself)... :(

HTH,
