Computer Hardware Help → Re: [motherboard] Pulling my hair out here....

Yes, that is hooked up...as Azinator said, we even tried it out of the case...all standoffs have been removed and replaced multiple times, in two different, known good cases...thanks for the tips though...I know standoffs can be a real bitch...

Try putting it back to the old case. I know that can be a pain, but just in case.

Just a Thought...

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...

Clearing the Bios worked here with a similar problem where MB wouldn't power up at all - no fans or anything.

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.

I can't remember if we tried that or not....wouldn't hurt to try it...
