Dead Board or Cpu?

[infradead]

Just got a used AMD64 3200 and a B-stock(claimed to be working) MSI Neo FIS2R. Put it together with 512MB DDR3200 ram and a Radeon 9800 pro. pressed the on button and nothing. No screen, no beeps, no IDE activity, not even the GFX card fan was turning. Just the CPU fan and the PSU fan and the light on the HD was on. Does this sound like a motherboard problem or a CPU problem?
Cheers
Ben.

I'd suspect some melted traces on (or in) the motherboard as the fan on the vid card should turn with power on (assuming the vid cardis good), just like the CPU fan. In my experience it's about 99% bad motherboards vs 1% bad CPUs.
