Friends building his own PC but he's having trouble. When he first turned it on, it beeped to say something was wrong and he thought it was the processor. So he took the cooler tower off it and put it back on which smeared a bit of the thermal paste. Tried it again, this time it didn't beep to tell him something's wrong, but he noticed he hadn't put the RAM in properly. Did so and still nothing. Now we've just re-applied some thermal paste to the processor - Still nothing. Hes also taken it out of the case and placed it on cardboard (where it is at the moment) to rule out short circuit - Still nothing When the main big power connector is connected to the motherboard, the fans come on for like half a second before they turn themselves off, whereas if he connects the processor power supply too, they only turn for like a fraction of a second (enough to see them move) Can anyone suggest anything to help? Anything be appreciated Spec is: Processor: Intel Q6600 Graphics card: Gigabyte HD3870XT Motherboard: Asus P5K-E WiFi/solo app RAM: Corsair XS2 1GB Hard drive: 500gb something He has got cd drives, floppy disc drives etc but he's not put them in for now Thanks in advance
