You could try removing everything but the proc (disconnect drives, remove PCI-cards, remove video-card, memory etc.) . Boot the thing. If the BIOS doesn't start to bleep (the beep codes should be in your mobo manual), either your mobo or proc is busted. Then, add the memory. The beep-code should change. If nothing happens, your memory could be dead. Go on adding one device at a time.

Ok, I'll give this a go. BUT: Since I know very little of how a computer works, I need a pretty detailed description of which devices should be removed and which should not be removed. Also, I need the same description on the sequence I'm supposed to add the devices. Furthermore, please tell me what I should be looking for doing this. In short, could someone hold my hand through this *shaking violently* ?

Last, I take it the mobo manual is downloadable? (Since I don't have it, I mean)
