Ok, so about 4 days ago my pc decided to cave.
When switching it on, there is no display (screen does not say check cable), intermittent beeps and no keyboard lights.
Things I've tried:
Tested another PSU, same result.
Stripped out RAM, sometimes it beeps, sometimes it does not. (correct error beep code as per ASUS website)
Disconnected the P4 cable. Same result. (just to check if something else might happen).
Stripped all the non essentials out. Same result.
Edit: Tried different RAM. Same result.
I suspect a bad mobo, but I'm not ruling out a bad CPU.
Any ideas?

When you took out the RAM what happened? Did you try other RAM? Only one stick etc?
Re: Failed pc! Plz help
Well, if all ram is taken out, it's one long and two short beeps.
But it does this when it wants. (beeps)
Tested my CPU in another pc today and it works. So the mobo it is.
Thanks for all the help anyway people.
