case swap now no start up no post

[Guest Roscoe P Pendoscoe]

All hardware same except new PSU and Seagate 160 HD.

 

Just wanted a smaller case, bigger drive and new PSU that would fit

under my wifes desk so I could quit taking my little toe off when I

walked by plus she needed more room.

 

All she uses it for is her online classes, photos, and the net so it's

no powerhouse. I built it and a clone about 5 years ago and I retired

the other one and this one did run 24/7 without issue until now.

 

I do have a dupicate board but all the green lights are lit.

 

Soyo board

P III 1 ghz

512 mhz Mushkin

160 GB Seagate

Antec 400 2.0 PSU

ATI 9600XT

and I tried a Geforce 5500GT and an even older ATI card with no luck

 

I have to get this thing going before her summer break is over. Any

ideas are appreciated. Save a life by helping me out here. I know it

is most likely something I have overlooked or missed but one of you

looking at it from a different perspective may be what I need.

 

Would a board to case ground prevent it from posting?

 

Regards,
