Hi Guys, My Asus M3A78-T which is 2 years old died after a reboot yesterday... I have a Phenom2 940 quad,2 gig Corsair ram, Corsair HX620W PSU...I was trying to access vista which is in a second drive, got into the bios, changed boot priority to vista's drive and then nothing after it shut down. The fans cut on, the motherboard power on light is on, no posting of any kind, no beeps, nothing. Below the regulator heat sink next to the processor the MB has a oily film and feel, but I can't see where it is coming from . Could my processor have died instead of the board? Will it still try to post without a processor ? Any ideas ??
Sorry I haven't been around much in a while, after my arm healed from last years accident I have taken on a QC position at work and we are going for the ISO 9001 certification, needless to say I am very busy...still crunching though !! Thanks for any suggestions !
