Help - Computer not POSTing

Ok so I ordered a new mobo (Soltek SL-75MRN-L) and threw my old CPU from my old A7V333-X motherboard into it, and bleh, doesn't POST. So I figure could be motherboard, and put it back in my old motherboard and...doesn't POST! So I figure I fried my CPU! So I order a AMD 2600 XP CPU, put it in the new motherboard and it still won't post. My question is, is it possible since the ram is not specific to this motherboard that that is the reason it doesn't post? It is of the right speed (the board supports DDR400) but the ram isn't like, specific to a Soltek SL-75MRN-L board. Does anyone know how ram interacts with motherboards in this sense? Would that cause it to not POST (absolutely nothing happens aside from the powerup - LED comes on, fan on the CPU turns on, harddrives don't boot and nothing happens on the screen). Help!
 
My new NF7Sv2 absolutely refused initial boot without using the INSERT key at power-up. Resetting CMOS or removing CMOS battery or replacing CMOS battery didn't help.

Try this:
Depress INSERT Key and keep it depressed during power-up.
Power up.
Tap DELETE Key to enter BIOS setup.

That usually works for all Nvidia-chipset boards.

Hope this helps!
 
My PSU is pretty weak, but why would that cause even my old configuration to stop working? I threw my old amd 1.33ghz athlon back in and it does the same thing.
