Answer» i have a problem with my hardware on both computers. when i turn on the computers, the monitor nor keyboard works. ive tried different video cards that i have and still the same problem. ive also tried plugging my monitor into the other computer, same problem. any ways to fix this?Not a lot to go on here!

Fans start.
Hard drive 'whirrs'
No beeps.
No lights on keyboard.

my theory is that its the processor.
Reduce computer to bare minimum; on stick of memory etc. Then try. Then (if possible) swap parts with known working parts until you find the culprit. It could be something as random as a faulty soundcard that prevents the PC from BOOTING.i recently bought a refurbished motherboard from frys. (yesterday) i dont have any extra available stuff.

sadly, yes
i did overclock that too.
yes, im an idiot and regret every move i made in overclocking.
but, i learned my lesson. now im just trying to get at least back to normal.again, i did try different video cards with my monitor, and a different monitor on the different cards.
and on my new motherboard theres a cmos jumper to reset or BIOS settings, i did that before booting up.i also have enough money to buy a replacement processor, thats why i was wondering if it was the processor. or for a new video card if needed.joe_tucker..........
