my computer broke :(

[underzr0]

My ipod Touch (that seems funny )
my Reclusa Keyboard
and my Standard Microsoft Mouse.

Anything else like extrernal hard drives or USB hubs? Anything external not on the USB bus?

[underzr0]

i dont believe so.

OK, now describe the trouble shooting steps you have done and their results, preferably in the order taken. Be as detailed as possible.

What is the current state of the machine? IE what is currently together and plugged in.

I have my Patriot Extreme Performance Ram in my mobo, i have my EVGA 8800 GTS 512mb in the mobo right now. i have my Samsung 20x Optical drive plugged in right now, i have my SEAGATE Barracuda 7200rpm 16mb cache 250gb SATA2 HDD Plugged in, i have my CPU in my mobo and the heatsink on, i have my CPU Power cables plugged in, i have my Video Card Power cable plugged in, i have my main Power cable plugged in (24-pin), I have all my front power connections, USB connections and Other connections in the front plugged in, and i have 5 fans plugged into Via Molex.

Things i've tried taking out or removing and turning on:
I've tried taking the video card out, i've tried taking the ram out and, i've unpluged my HDD, and optical drive, i've tried plugging in the Mobo Molex that is usually for SLI, i've tried replacing the battery, i've tried the second PCI-E Power Connection, i've tried different power Cables to the HDD.
and i've tried Clearing the CMOS.

and the only thing i have plugged in when im trying this is the Power Cord.

EDIT: i also checked to see if the CPU pins where bent on the mobo and it didn't look like it to me, so i re-seated it.

Time to get really bare bones to see what happens.

Unplug everything from the motherboard and try the following:

Remove and re-insert the memory.
Plug in the CPU fan, chipset fan (if any) and any system fans that plug into the motherboard headers.
Plug in the main motherboard power connector (the big 24 pin one)
Plug in the CPU power connector (4 or 8 pin as necessary)
Plug in the auxiliary molex connector for PCI- power to the motherboard (4 pin molex)
Plug in the PCI-E power connector into your video card (6 pin)
Plug in the front panel headers for power and reset

Things to have pluged into the back of the computer:
Monitor cable
PS/2 keyboard (do not use a USB keyboard or a USB to PS/2 adapter)
AC power cord

Things not to plug in:
The five system fans using molex connectors to reduce power draw.
Any additional USB headers.
Hard drives to both the motherboard and power supply.
Optical drive to both the motherboard and power supply.
Anything else that I haven't explicitly mentioned.

Try this and if no progress try reseting the CMOS again. Report back.

ok, ill try it tomorrow, but just to let you know i did take the mobo out and then put everything back together again.

[underzr0]

ok, so i tried that but i only unplugged the stuff that wasn't supposed to be plugged in, instead of unplugging everything then plugging some stuff back in, because i already did that before.. i also couldn't plug in a PS/2 Keyboard or my monitor because my Bro is using my monitor and i dont know where the PS/2 Keyboards are.

im now trying to reset the CMOS again, ill try both ways, the Jumper and the Battery. ill Edit my post once im done.

Umm... get a monitor for testing. You may or may not get any sort of information displayed but it is just foolish to miss out on the possibility of this information. Even the monitor receiving a signal and then cutting out can assist in figuring out problems.

Also get a PS/2 keyboard as USB keyboards are sometimes flakky. PS/2 keyboards are generally more reliable and don't use the USB bus. The last error you got in Windows dealt with USB so it would be wise to have no items on the USB for diagnostic testing to bring the system back to life.

Also have the hard drive, optical drive and all other devices that are not necessary to simply boot into BIOS. That is the simple goal of the testing right now. Having these devices unplugged keeps them from getting additional wear and tear and helps protect your data incase of malfunctioning hardware.

i dont have a keyboard plugged into it at all, but i will use a monitor. bbiab

EDIT: it didn't post a Screen at all.
