Just got my nf7-s v2.0 from newegg, everything is plugged in... turns on, but nothing shows up on my screen.

2500 XP-M, tried using my old 1700xp

350 watt enermax psu

2x512 geil platinum pc3500, tried using 1 stick of my old pc2700 ram too

Radeon 9800 Pro, tired using my old gf3 ti200

resetted the bios a few times

still nothing is showing up... i get no post, no beeps, nothing.

it is probaly fried, but if i hot swap the bios with a friend and reflash it, can that fix it? or is the motherboard fried for good

Reflashing the bios in another board only works when you messed up the bios flash yourself. You more than likely got a bad motherboard, and just need to RMA it (through whoever you bought it through, not through Abit). Also, your Enermax psu isn't going to be nearly enough for a highly-overclocked Athlon. Get this one instead: Antec TruePower 430. It's an awesome psu, at an awesome price.;)
