Thanks for your response Tom.

I have varified that the voltage switch is set correctly.  I have not tried
to boot with the board out of the PC, but since it appears that I will need
to remove it anyway to replace it I might as well try that.  I have tried to
boot with just the CPU, memory and video installed.  It just sat there
playing dumb.

==================

Jerry, I check for grounding shorts by running the motherboard outside
the case on a bench, although I have never had that problem with an ATX
case.
Disregarding a grounded motherboard, I would say my best guess
is a case set to 220 instead of 110, although how that might have
happened.....:).  If that's not it, and the board will not come up with
nothing except cpu, memory, and video installed, replace it.

Hi everyone,
I have a PC that not only will not boot, but does absolutely nothing when
power is applied.
