Ok here's the scoop...
I got two new sticks of 512 ram (already had 1 512 in there), so I went to go stick them into my computer today and when I did I fired up the old beast and there was kind of a quiet pop sound then the computer went dead (There is also the possibility I'm an ***** and stuck one of the ram modules in upside down, but I'm not sure.) Now when I try to boot it (have to turn off PSU, turn it back on) the fans spin for about a second then stop, but nothing else powers up.
So obviously something got fried but I have no idea what it was... I'm thinking it's probably the motherboard but I have no idea.
Anyways here's my setup:
P4 2 GHZ Socket 478
Old Soltek motherboard (not sure of model but if its important I can probably find it)
400W Antec PSUP
512 266 DDR Ram (attempted expansion to 1536)
Radeon 9800 PRO 256MB
Audigy 2
2 HDD
2 CD Drives
1 disk drive
Modem and an Ethernet Card
Anyways... help please :/
