Four red lights means:

System Power ON
It will start BIOs init.

If it doesnt do anything else, the reasons for it not to work are:

The processor might be damnaged, or not in correctly.

WHAT YOU SAID = BAD




j/k Actuall,y I went through similar shininigans, and ended up replacing my power supply for a 350watt sucker and some new pc133 memory. BUt before you do anything else, strip your system down to the bare minimum ie video card, bare mobo out of the box, power supply, keyboard. Sometimes mobos can be notorious for shorting out on the case for one reason or another. But again, give the power supply a shot.

I'll keep up with your progress, this damn board pisses me off.

at least the PS is usually comparatively inexpensive with other pc stuff. Damn expensive hobbies... but it sure beats crack!
