motherboard problem

[whirlwindmjc]

i just recieved a new motherboard and i'm not getting a post with it. i already RMAed one and i'm having the same problem with this one as i had with the other. only video cd, memory, and processor are installed.. it's an ecs k7s5a, sis735 chipset.. sparkle 300 watt fsp-300-60gt power supply... 1.4 ghz athlon, crucial pc2110 ddr dimm, atx. i tested the tbird in my friend's system and all was fine. any help would be greatly appreciated since we're both stuck.. also, i am lookin on how to backup outlook 2000 data without exporting it, because i can't get into my OS to back it up.. i just need the files that it stores the messages in.. thank you in advance.
