It doesn’t work! Okay – what I can see when I power it up is that the fan works – power source is probably okay then, right? And the motherboard does light up ..... But it doesn’t work – it came with no memory or hard drive or OS, so I swapped out my HD and memory and tried to get it to start up with no luck – oh, changed the pram - new battery – what else can I check? Suggestions? Is it probably the processor that is dead then if the light on the motherboard lights up or does that mean anything?
