    Yah, I'd run through the docs one more time before I went back to Fry's.
    at the draft party a couple of years ago, and under a considerable haze, i heard Birdman yell out the following (about 4 or 5 times, i think) - "don't marry yourselves to players!" he went on to reiterate that idea more than once on the boards, and i believe it to be absolutely sage.

    Talk to me about the connections for the case power switch/HDD LED/Power LED, etc. These connectors don't appear to have a particular polarity on this case. I've aligned arrows on the molex plugs with the positive indicator on the board. Think these being reversed could keep it from posting?

    perhaps you might need a bigger power supply for the board, cpu, and devices?

    My computer likes to do the same thing all the time. Try re-seating the RAM. Do it a few times. Sometimes gentle...sometimes hard. I know it sounds all kinky...but my RAM on the home machine causes that same issue.

    Only other suggestion would be to reset the BIOS.

    I work on computers all day...so I've see it all.

    P.S. Listen to the other guys...don't trust Fry's. Next computer will be a Dell for me.

    New mobo and processor installed. POSTS right off the bat. No issues.

    Installing XP as I type this.

    Thanks, everyone.
