CPU problem

[skelmen4201]

I blew it al out, reapplied thermal grese, all mentioned...

It didn't beep.

Is there any way to test the MoBo or CPU without another CPU/MoBo?

Okay... my computer would turn the fans, then i connected the moniter to the onboard graphics, and it won't even turn on(fans)...

Then if I leave it be, it will turn the fans on.

It seems like the longer it stays off, the farther it gets through post.

It stayed off, for 2 months and it boots for 3 days.

hi again Skelman,
have you tried replacing the battery on the mobo? i have had it happen that when the battery was dying it changes, or wont hold bios settings. just a thought

Try removing the RAM and re-seating it in the other slots, using one DIMM at a time. Also, try the RAM by itself in another machine if possible. Try re-seating the processor again. As kimsland said, it could still be a problem with this PSU also. It could be any of those things and the only way to find out for sure is to test each component individually.

It is not the RAM; it should beep when there is no RAM inserted, no beeping.

I've narrowed it down to CPU or MoBo as the problem.

The battery is fine, I replaced it with a sure working one, it didn't help...

Also the CPU was outside of the MoBo for 2 months on a desk.

The CMOS battery i just replaced, it had no change...

The computer; however, mysteriously turns off in about 30 secs, then won't turn on for a day...

The DVD-Drive Keeps on flashing its lights in a pattern, making a sound... (Beep-oop, Doot...Doot, Beep-oop...)

The HDD light stays on, until shutdown...

I hate to have all my files and a 3.0ghz PC laying around.

I am stuck, please help!

After reading through the entire topic, the only thing I can see that would be the problem is the motherboard or the PSU. If you're sure it's not the PSU, that leaves the motherboard as the culprit.

I'm gonna get an equivalent MoBo for my B-Day,

From a fellow gamming enthusiast, same one I tested the PC at.

Thank you for all your help!
