I want to make a new Fedora box so I used an existing case and put into it a<br>
new ASUS motherboard and a dual core low power CPU (an AM2+) and 1 gig of RAM<br>
(512x2) and a new 450 watt power supply. The only front panel connection is<br>
for the power switch. Every time I power up (wall power is known good) the<br>
unit goes through all the motions for about 5 seconds then stops dead. It<br>
never gets to powering up the on-board video or doing the ram check or<br>
displaying the BIOS config messages. Tried another PS with the same results.<br>
Any ideas? I mean ANY ideas, I'm out of clues on this one. References welcome.<br>
