    System not powring up

    I have a system with a Aseock ALiveNF6P-VSTA motherboard which will not power up for no apparent reason I tried turning it on in the morning and it would not have it.

    I have checked the power connectors and everything else on the motherboard and everything seems in place.

    I have unplugged all the stuff that I don't really need too.

    I have also tried a new PSU but still nothing.

    No LED's light up on the motherboard or anything.

    Can you guys help me no this one

    Thanks

    It is possible that either one or the following is bad Memory, CPU, Motherboard, Add-In Video Card. I would start by trying different ram and if you have an add-in video card try one of those after the ram. If still no luck then you could have a fried CPU or Motherboard.

    If you don't have a power supply tester, you can test the power supply with a piece of insulated wire socket by connecting the only green wire in the ATX molex with any black socket, but only do so if you are comfortable doing so. This will eliminate that as the culprit. I have seen a nuumber of computers have the power lead from the computer case wiggle off the pins, so check that as well.

    Power to the wall outlet? Pull the cpu and try to turn it on. Then remove memory and try again.

    Test the power supply as previously mentioned.
