the little fuse like pin things, if you look in the manual for the motherboard, set them on the pins for clear CMOS and whalla, Cleared, Cheers, Gunny (just look in manual for location and such!)

Yea your motherboard isn't posting. Clearing the CMOS might help, however you also may have a DOA board. Which board exactly is it?

Step 1:

You plugged the computer power plug into the socket on the wall...
