[0oGOkuo0]

Hello again I manage to make a list of PC parts that ill be buying tommorow and Im buying the parts far from my home and assemble it myself  so my question is.... how can i test a motherboard if its dead or working properly(sometimes they give DOA to customers... maybe)so i want to test the MOBO and the parts there on the spot.... i dont wanna go back to the store to return and exchange it,its too far(parts there are pretty cheap compared to others and has more variety)

thanks in avdance for the answer.

Plug it in to the power supply, drop a CPU in, and see if it lights up.
