Hi, I've came across this Compaq Presario PC that wont boot up. It's really the Motherboard that's faulty (ASUS A8M2N-LA). When power is applied it starts automatically without pressing the power button although it can be turned off by pressing and holding power button. When it's on the fans spin and nothing else happens; no boot, no screen, no beeps (it doesn't even beep without memory stick in it). I've tested the CPU and Memory with different motherboard and they work fine. I've also cleaned the Bios chips' pins. Does anyone knows if its fixable. Thank you very much.
