Hi,
Got two Socket A/462 motherboards that are not starting. The CPU and PSU fan starts spinning for a brief second and then shutdown.
Same behavior on both boards (Abit NF7 and Asus A7V8X-X) and two PSUs (Corsair AX700 and Corsair CX500). The CX500 PSU was used to power the original Abit NF7 setup. I ordered the Asus as a replacement since i suspected dead caps on the Abit. Currently the caps are looking good on both boards after I replaced some blown/bulging caps on the on the Abit. Replacement board (with it's included CPU and Memory) was tested OK at seller so that board should at least boot.
Tried resetting BIOS and replacing BIOS batteries.
Any suggestions?
