check ram first and then check cpu.

1.check with a other monitor. 2.check the videocard. 3.if two HDD and set optimal deafaults in BIOS. bios can change drive to boot from.

There can be several faillures. If the lights are on then I'd start with ram and after that with graphic card. If not then start with psu.

did you plug in the four wire power plug in by the cpu socket?are all plug in right place that they go to?did you check the power supply out as well.

Here is the link, some of the text is in Danish, but just press the download tab, and all of the useful text is in english.http://www.asus.dk/Motherboards/Intel_Socket_478/P4S800MX/#downloadGlobal
If you already have tried this download, are you sure this isn't the se version of the motherboard?
Regarding the usb and sound; first of all have you installed al the drivers supplied with the motherboard? If you have, then have you connected the internal usb pins to the external ports and tried every usb port including those on the back?
Unfortunately that is what I can suggest at this point... If that doesn't work, and updating the bios doesn't work, then I suggest resetting the motherboard.
Hope this helps

Unfortunately Sound Max is no longer available and you may be able to find the driver at the Asus site I gave you. It would only work for the version of Windows your system came with and, I can't guarantee that. Your easiest and best option at this point, would be to upgrade to a PCI or USB sound card. You can use something like this:

Which is a USB card or, something like this:

There are others available:

Any of these sould work for you and, in the long run, you will be happier with an added card.
Good luck,
Dave

First right click my computer clickproperties then click hardware then device manager and in the click sound vedio and came controller and see wether the driver is installed properly if you see question mark in the driver or the driver not installed properly reload your sound driver which came with the motherboard if the drivers are installed properly then click start settings control pannel then click sound and audio device then click volume and move the slider to high then untick the mute button if ticked then restart the computer

You will need to re-install the driver for each component.

If you no longer have the CD's, you can download the drivers from each manufacturer's web site.

if your computer wont boot and is not giving the post noise

one bad lead can cause a computer to continue on a cycle or to shutdown or fail to detect your hard drive

Test all leads that attach to your hard drive including electrical extensions,IDE,SATA

the leads from your ((motherboard to your hard drive)) make sure they have a secure connection and are not faulty or just replace them there probably old and faulty make sure all leads that are attached to your drives dvd\cd 3 1/2 inch floppy have secure connections and are not faulty even the electic extensions or just replace them they are probably faulty a computer needs its connections to have an end so any faulty leads will end up with a computer error hope this helps don
