I got started on the computer today. Here are the parts
Asus P5B-E
C2D- Conroe 6400
Lite-on DVD RW
Lite-on DVD Rom
Mitsumi floppy/card reader
G.Skill DDR2 800
XFX 7600
visiontek tv tuner
2-320 gb seagate hard drive
Running MCE 2005
I got it all set up and everything seemed to be going fine. I have been installing the drivers and windows updates and all of that was done. I was now working on getting some software installed and had installed the logitech setpoint for the keyboard and mouse. I installed the antivirus avg, windows defender which I had to uninstall because it kept on going corrupt. Anyway I was messing with the Al Lifestyles features and was just learning and playing around a little bit with fan settings etc. Nothing major at all. It had to restart and bam. It won't restart. The fans and dvd roms work, and the power light on the mobod is lit. No power to the screen at all now. What is up. I cleared the cmos and it said it couldn't find the dvd rom, floppy etc. but it won't let me get into the bios. Does anyone have any idea at all. I have built many computers and had minor problems but never this. WoW.

You have conflicting information here, first you say that there is no power to the screen which I take to mean that there is no image at all on the monitor. With no signal from the computer the monitor should still turn on and have some message or color bar to indicate that it's ok.
Then you say that it won't let you get into the BIOS, how can you tell if your monitor has no power/signal?
It is probably poorly stated on my part. What I should have said was the screen was black with no info. The computer was running and there was no little box telling me this. I fixed the problem anyway after many tries I got it to boot and found it to be some of the software with the mobod that actually was overclocking the board. No problems since I uninstalled it and have had it running for 2 days and no problems.
Good to hear.
