Here's one for you.

I just replaced the motherboard, CPU, and power supply in my new machine.
Motherboard: Asus M3N78 Pro w/ GeForce 8300
CPU AMD Phenom 9850 Black Edition
Power supply: Thermaltake W0116RU 750W

I'm not getting anything. I hit the power switch, the fans twitch, but that's
it. Memory is known good and approved for the board. Video is onboard GeForce.
Tried PCI video card instead, no luck. Tried the memory one stick at a time, no
luck. Tried nothing but onboard video and one stick of ram, and the boot drive,
no good. There are no jumpers on this board except clear CMOS and chassis
intrusion.

 The only parts *not* known to work are the new ones, and I don't have the time
or inclination to mess with it. Any ideas on what I should RMA out first?


Douse your new PSU have a 115/230 volt switch on it? I tore my remaining hair out on the same problem for 2 days when all it was was that the switch was set for 220v.
