My PC model is Acer M1640, the PC wont start here are my test:

Problem:

  • The PC wont even BEEP
  • The power lights and fans work normal
  • Hard disk spins and I can hear it working

Things I have tried doing:

  • Remove all drives
  • Tested all the RAM's (Removed one tested one and Removed all)
  • Cleaning the CPU fan
  • Removed Graphics card
  • Tried new battery and PSU disconnection

None of those worked :/ I have also tried seeing if wires are loose.

Suggestions and fixes anyone?

So you don't see any output whatsoever on the screen? And you've tried plugging the monitor right into the motherboard? – MaxMackie Jul 10 '11 at 20:13
Nope, nothing. No signal. – Asus Jul 10 '11 at 20:16
Can you confirm that the monitors work? If not this seems like there might have been a short circuit somewhere. Is this a new build? Have you added hardware? – MaxMackie Jul 10 '11 at 20:18
There was no new hardware added to it, The monitor works fine. I am using it at the moment with another PC. It's an Acer M1640. Acer built it. The mobo doesnt even beep. – Asus Jul 10 '11 at 20:20

There could be enough power to get the USB up and running, but bringing a whole system up requires a good deal more. I've been in situations where my fans would all light up and my drives would spin but my computer would get to the BIOS. It was a power supply issue. You could borrow a PSU from a friend and give it a try (make sure the powers either match up or the new one is more powerful). If not, you might benefit from spending 50$ and getting the computer tested at a computer shop. They would be able to tell you exactly what to do (assuming they're competent). – MaxMackie Jul 10 '11 at 20:35
