    Hello,

    I am a bit confused.. you say the PC boots, but does not POST. POST is the first thing that happens before a computer can actually boot to the OS (Post means Power On Self Test).

    How many sticks of memory do you have in the machine? Remove all but 1 (with the power off) and try to boot, if that fails, repeat with all memory sticks 1 at a time.
