Light and fans, no display

Hello All,

I have been given an Packard bell ixtreme Gold S 1919 media centre PC, all is well untill i turn it on.
The lights come on, fans spin, but no Post beep and no display.
I has been given another motherboard 'same as original' ( Gigabyte GA-8i945PM-RH) and a brand new sealed in box processor ( Intel VT E3300 LGA775 S-spec).

When I fitted the replacement motherboard and new processor, i still get the same result.
I have downloaded the user manual from the Packard Bell website, but am unable to find out if this processor is compatible with the motherboard.

Can any one help?
Also any suggestions on getting this running again. If you need more info please ask.

 

might be the psu

 

could you post the complete model number? I'm looking at packard bell's page, but the models don't match with what you posted.

also, looking at gigabyte's page for a similar model, it doesn't support anything above a P4D
so, i'm not sure if your's will. But according to intel's site about the 945P chipset

 

the extra details are:
Model/Type: UTOW - MEX
MS WHQL No: MEX 1087810
S/N: 049737720119
PID:0497377
P/N: PB35207801
MIM:
Model Name: iXTREME Gold S 1919

The power supply in there is a 250W FSP Group Model no: FSP250-60GEN

This is running:
The board with the 24 pin board connector + 4 pin connector
CPU fan,
Graphics card ( Radeon X600 256MB V/D/VO)
TV in card
56k Modem,
DVD RW drive,
Card reader,
Audio/ video front panel,
Sata Hard Drive,
Pop up IR and extra USB panel and 2 light up panels
and 1 case fan

Is this 250W power supply up tothe Job?
Any replacement needs small purple connector to run a front panel any suggestions please?

 

FSP's psu are junk and 250 WATS is not enough

never skip on the power supply

 

Thank you for that,
So which power supply would you recommend?

would this be okay?

or this

reading up on specs for the x600 pro, it's recommended is 300w. (350 if you have other things going as well)

what do you have on the front panel that requires power?

 

On the current power supply there is a small Purple connector for a touch sensor buttons. On the front pannel is, USB, ports, Audio out/In Firewire and an IR pannel.

Will get the new power supply and see how it goes.

 

something like this

never Buy Cheap power supply's
if you buy cheap they usually tend to blow up .. taking other components with them

 

I have installed a 530W power supply with the replacement motherboard and the new processor and nothing, I swapped to the old processor and bingo!!! we are up and running.

Thanks for the help.
My next question is: where sells pentium D chips? and is it worth upgradeing the RAM and processor and new HDD or buying a new PC?

 

I wouldt bother with a PenD
there where/ARE horrible chips
