Well about two days ago, I was taking apart my server rig. I've got no use for running a server anymore and am trying to sell off the parts. I was running the server in the server rack a mere two days ago, however after removing the rack from the wall and testing everything on the ground, suddenly the system won't start up. I thought it may be some kind of short or random component failure, not a huge deal. So, I took the motherboard/processors/coolers out, along with the PSU and video card. When I plug in the power supply to the board, the green "OK" light turns green and is ready to boot, but when I click the power switch, nothing.
Any ideas of what could be the problem? Is there a short somewhere, possibly in the power supply, or power supply wires? The green OK light signals to me that the board isn't dead, so I have no idea why it won't boot.
Like the title says, it's an old Asus NCT-D Dual Socket 604 Motherboard. I've got two 3.6Ghz Xeon's in the sockets, and two Noctua coolers sitting on top of them. Power supply is a Corsair CX430.
If you need any other info or pictures, let me know. I'll keep troubleshooting while this thread is awaiting replies.
