hi everyone. MY brother called me last weekend and said he was having a problem with his computer. All the fans were on in his computer but he could not get a video signal. Apparently his screen saver locked up and after he rebooted no video signal at all. On the phone i thought it might be his video card or maybe psu (he has a crappy psu). I took it back to my place and tried his video card in one of my computers and it worked just fine. I then stripped the computer down to just the motherboard and video card and nothing. When i turn the computer on i don't get anything. I would expect to at least get beep but nothing at all but the fans spin just fine on the cpu and everything. The motherboard is an epox 8rda+ (nforce2 board) and the led on the motherboard is showing FF. I found a post that pretty much stated that if you were having problems maybe taking out the bios chip and then inserting it back in would work which i did in fact do. I also of course cleared the cmos and took the battery out for over 30 minutes. Nothing seems to work. Do you guys think the MB is shot? I would assume the cpu is not dead else you would get anything when you turned the power on. What do you guys think? Is this a mb problem and i just need to get a new one?
