I know this has been covered before, but just trying to cover all the bases. I am trying to fix my dad's pc. It stopped working after an electrical storm.
When I turn it on, all of the fans spin up. The cdrom light turns on for a second, blinks, and then turns off. Nothing after this, i.e no post, no spin up of hdd's, etc. I haven't tested the power supply yet, but if it spins up the fan, does this mean it works?
Things I have tried:
removed ram - no beeps
removed ram, hdd, nic, etc. - no beeps
removed cpu and ram and everything else - no beeps
The fact that I get no beeps at all makes me think its the mb, but suggestions are highly encouraged.
Thanks, and Help!
