I returned to my PC tonite to discover it had totally locked up while SETIing over the day. I immedatly killed the power and stuck my hand in to check the temps. Everything was between cold and slighty-less-than-cold (the ambient temp was about 10 degrees - i had left the window open)
So temperatures where not a problem. Upon restarting i got no post no beep no nothing. The lights lit up, the fans buzzed, the HDD crackled - but no output atall.
I have checked the RAM and graphics card in a another machine and they are fine. I have unplugged the HDD,CDD and Soundcard and still nothing.
So, it is my motherboard has failed? If so i need to claim on warrenty (i hope to dear god i can). Any suggestions for how to make this damn thing work - i feel all empty without the far cry demo to play - dear god that is sad
