Looks like I'm gonna have to order this quite soon, my PC has completely died now. The fans come on, but it refuses to post, so it could only be a few things...
I've checked most things, but I'm assuming it's the motherboard due to the fact that I can take everything off the motherboard, power it up and it doesn't complain one bit, no beeping or anything. I'm certain that most BIOS manufacturers include the facility for the system to beep if it detects errors (like no memory or CPU for example), but nothing. I've made sure that the case speaker is plugged in correctly, and still nothing.
The only other thing it could be is the PSU? It's a CWT 450W, I've had it for a long, long time... It's one of those that Antec used to rebrand as their own
IIRC. Still, I can't help but think it's maybe attributing to the fault here. I don't have another PSU I can't test though.
So, I have some recomendations above for the motherboard, but what about a decent PSU these days? Again, I would have to set a budget of about £50-60, and if possible, I would like one that is modular (can't stand all those extra cables sitting above my DVD drives in the case). Probably not a lot of options for that price range though, after having a quick look on scan!
