AFAIK, you don't get a beep code w/o the cpu. It could be either one... do you have another cpu/mb to try it in?

If memory serves, you dont get any beep code with no CPU. You best bet is to try a spare cpu in the board and start from there.

Make sure that you have plugged in the motherboard-

CPU
Memory
Video Card
PSU

Nothing else.

Take out the RAM and see if it gives you bleep codes.

Send the system to me :D I'll fix it and then put it to folding like it should be!

Do you have a clear BIOS jumper on the mobo? If not, take the battery out for a few seconds.

Any other peripherals plugged in?
Are you sure the PSU didn't go bad?
