I am considering that, but in the event it is the motherboard I will be stuck with a cheap one. I am conflicted, even though my computer was really still plenty fast for me, perhaps I should just upgrade if I cant figure it out what is dead.
On another note, this Asrock MB has what they call Dr Debug, that also doesn't even light up right now. I was looking at the codes and there a few referencing no cpu, should it show that code if I remove the cpu, or it just in reference to a badly sit cpu. If it is supposed to show no cpu I cant try to remove and see what it does.
