I have a pal who's rig is down and out. Here is what I have done so far:
1) There is a green led, so I dont think its the existing power supply or power connector.
2) I did hook up a different power supply (400 w) and still no boot.
3) I pulled off the heatsink and fan, and the processor does not seem burnt.
4) I see no blown caps, scarring, etc.
So at this point, I am looking for board to try the processor in. If anyone has any other ideas, let me know.
