But I digress.

The asus isn't much better, but at least the northbridge doesn't overheat and calf on them.

side note... any idea why the intel D945 boards die? i have like 3 that power on (fans and power light)... but don't POST. I have like 3 here all exact same symptom.

Test SMT caps?

Good news is the new motherboard came today! Bad news is i have something hooked up wrong. It powers down 3 seconds on boot. Back to the drawing board

Well fixed the boot issue but i still have the Dsub error. Now I have no idea

Dsub is either bad vga cable or bad video chip.

I changed mb,cables, hard drive, and cmos. I do have a spare screen i could try

I think I figured out my issue. This entire time of swapping out power supplies I never stopped to see the voltage or Watts. the original powersupply is 300 watts and the power supply I bought is only 230.  so I'm going to say that's my issue. the only bad thing is the 300 watt power supply run about $100.
