"I tried to install another internal HDD + another 256 RAM (both of them are used) to my computer, operating XP with an ASUS P5P800S motherboard. When I ran the system, the new device was found by the sys....

The hard drive would not show up until you initialize it in the control panel. With everything off the motherboard you should get some post beep. Put the ram back and try again, the next thing to install is the video to see if there is any indication of function. Keep adding things back. If there is no post beep with just the motherboard then you need to test the PSU and if it is OK then CPU or motherboard is bad.

E machine t3104 cd drive and hardrive dont work fans and processor fans come on though.

Use a DMM and test the power wires for hard drive and CD drive should read around 12VDC ( peak). DMM=Digital Multi Meter... If theres power then check connections remove them then replace them.

No sound when i put in cd or dvd was working ok untill my computer crashed

check the following

Microsoft Volume Control or your mixer program mute options and volume sliders.
Connect headphones to the stereo phone jack on your CD-ROM drive’s front panel; adjust the volume control settings on the drive. If there is sound from your headphones, check the CD audio cable connection from the CD-ROM drive to the audio card.
Ensure the speakers are properly connected to the audio card’s output connector.

hope this can help

goodluck

MicroATX motherboard work but the monitor shows a black screen.

I assume the monitor is turned on? Try the monitor with a known good computer to verify it's OK. I believe this board has AGP video. Verify that it's properly seated, or try another board.
