I am trying to fix a pc for a friend of mine, the following is what happened...
Directx wasnt working on his pc, and he didnt have anything on his computer he needed saving, so i installed XP Professional on it, everything worked. He got home, plugged the mouse in, and the pc didnt work, resetting the cmos fixed this. I could boot fine with it and everything worked. However, when he brought it home and plugged it in again, it wont work AGAIN, and the cmocs jumper reset doesnt fix this. I need a detailed as possible, some sort of checklist, that i can go through to see what is the problem, i dont but i could in the future, have an extra ps, or mb to try out.
Motherboard:

p4 1.7ghz cpu
384mb ram
30gb hd
wintek 400watt ps
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
