No boot

I've got a PC that won't boot. No OS, no POST, nothing except running fans. I have an identical PC here that boots fine, and all jumper settings are identical. Any thoughts? Thanks ahead of time :)

I would start by removing everything that you dont need, things like, Sound card, network card, Leave 1 stick of ram in there, unhook the HDD. etc etc

If it boots up then slowly start adding each part 1 by 1 untill it does not boot and that will be your problem.

Now if it does not boot then try some things like,
- Try other ram stick and remove one thats currently in there.
- Try different video card
- Try different monitor just to make sure
etc

If that still does not work, try another powersupply.

Post back with results.

Try removing all the ram see if anything happens, any beeps and so on.

Also reset the cmos just to try, remove the cmos battery for about 5-10min to reset.
