Hi all,
I purchased this computer - here - and recieved it today. Unfortunately the product was not adequately packaged and had been shaken about like a ****tail in transit!!
So the hard drive was hanging out with one screw bent at nasty angle and there were a number of screws at the bottom of the case that had collected up. Apart from that everything <seemed> ok with no obvious signs of damage. When i turn the computer on it powers up all the fans start up and various fancy lights ping on. But there is no bio read out on screen, nothing, no beeps to say something is wrong just nothing - and the monitor then goes into power save like nothing is being sent to the screen. What's the likeliest thing wrong here? Has the mobo totally had it? Could there be an obvious reason that it isn't powering up properly (apart from fact its knackered)?
