OH MY.

THIS IS FIXED.

so basically today i went to NCIX richmond, bought a motherboard, noted the " NO RETURNS, ONLY EXCHANGES FOR EXACT ITEM " so i knew i needed to get the right motherboard otherwise i'd get dicked.

The sales guy (IVAN) doesn't seem the most friendly at first. Anyways he directed me to the motherboard, bought it and brought it home after running a few errands.

Now with my new PSU in the case, i thought i should at least test one more time before i begin stripping my computer apart to replace the motherboard.

Turns out it was a piece of RAM that caused it not to boot properly. Son of a bitch.

Booked it straight to NCIX, had to look like a fool and ask to see what they can do with the motherboard (completely unopened and it's only been an hour or so). Ivan isn't exactly friendly, but he's definitely reasonable, allowed me to get store credit back, and suggested me a replacement RAM for my computer, walked out a happy customer.

Put everything together and here i am back on my PC. what a way to start 2009.

Thanks for all the help guys, i definitely learned a lot about the PC.
