When I try to boot my friend's system, it doesn't get through the POST process, and I'm unable to tell exactly where it fails.
The Symptoms are as such: I turn on the power, and the chassis and cpu fans go. Hard drive turns on immediately, and after a second or so, the video card fan begins to turn. Nothing happens afterward, and the system whirs away until I power off.
System:
Asus M2N32 Deluxe SLI Mobo (wireless)
e-Geforce 8800 GTS
2 sticks of Corsair XMS2-6400 (1024 MB, 800 MHz)
Antec SP500 Power Supply
I am unsure of his processor, but it shows no sign of a problem with a CPU when the power button is pressed. I'd like to avoid having to reinstall it, if possible.
