A beep indicates succesfull POST, so If it doesnt beep, check whether the fan on the smps is on ?
SMPS may have a problem.
Most of all just check whether ur computer is pugged in and the switch is on, esp if u have a stabilizer and no UPS the residual power may just blink the lights on, ofcourse the computer will not start , no its not funny , this has happened.

Hey hows Kalyan now ?

Thanks for the reply
yes fan is running yes both fans.
and computer runs sometimes

yes done that without
stabilizer and UPS but nothing happens

if SMPS has problem then light is coming in computer fan is running cd rom and hard disk is running then what to do if smps has problem

i can call computer person but i think they may not come to place soon because of flooding all over

kalyan is not ok

hmm looks like problem with RAM, i had faced same problem few days back and later I found that one of my momory stick was gone...

check with hardware guy and see what he can do..

my suggestion before calling hardware guy: try removing your memory sticks and fitting then again..

if that doesnt work then....if you have 2 sticks on mobo then try removing one of them and try to run the pc on one RAM, cross check the same by interchanging both the sticks..

Ive helped one of my friends previously with a similair problem. His motherboard was fried though...

Usually it ends up to be a problem with your motherboard , SMPS or RAM.

Check this thread out. It has the above scenario listed in it...

U can get an Asus A8N-E with Amd64 3200+, 1G ram and a decent video card like 6600gt or 6800 according to your budget.

There are two ide ports on the latest mobos, but one is the hdd port and other is the cdrom port. You can always connect hdd and cdrom drives in the others' port too. You might lose some bandwidth from the hdd, but you can connect them atleast.

To conect more ide devices, you can buy yourselves an pci ide card that has two extra ide ports. Or, you could buy urselves an external hdd casing and attach hds via usb.

The price that you paid seems pretty reasonable. However i would recommend against going in for a FX 5700 for Rs. 6000, as u can get a Geforce 6600 for about the same price. With a 6600 you will get much better image quality then right now.
