Did MotherBoard Monitor program kill my Motherboard? Please Help.

I just reformatted my hard drive on my computer and just finished installing Motherboard Monitor. Like usual (I installed it previously on this system a couple months ago) I had to restart my computer to complete installation. However, nothing shows up on my monitor now, I don't hear any beeps, and it appears frozen. Basically everything is being powered, but nothing is happening. Did this program screw it up or what? Is my motherboard dead now? The power button on my case doesn't respond at all. The reset button doesn't do anything except flash my keyboard leds and cdrom leds. I tried resetting the BIOS/CMOS with the jumper on the motherboard but that had no effect. Nothing like this happened last time I installed MBM. My computer has been running fine this whole time (no crashes, blue screens, or whatever).


This is what I have:

SOLTEK 75FRN2-L
2500+ (overclocked to 3200+ and stable for last month)
Radeon 9800 np
 
Unplug everything and see if it will post. Make sure the video card is in the slot and hooked up and check all connections that have to be there for it to post. Do you have a boot floppy? BIOS flashing utility and a late BIOS if needed? The fact that it will not reset the BIOS is not sounding good if all connections are solid for a basic POST boot.:frown:
