Hi Guys
I may have had a Mother Board failure.Turned off the PC this morning & haven't been able to bring it back to life since won't even post.
Have removed everything from the board & sill won't post.My local Tech is checking it tomorrow but he thinks it's the board also.
He also told me it may be hard to get a replacement board as most AMD2+ boards with DDR2 ram are now discontinued & the new AM3 boards won't support my processor or ram.
He suggested that if I need to replace the board should I go Intel Instead of AMD which means a new Board Processor & Ram which will give me better upgrade options in the future.
Any suggestions on a board & processor if I have to go this way. The only thing I'll be keeping are my HDD's & the GTX460 video card if this turns out to be my only option
