Re: Mobo repair - any point?

I've got a mobo where the led comes on when the power supply is
connected but powering on does absolutely nothing. I've even tried
shorting the power button pins to rule out power button problem but
still nothing.

Is it dead? Can I do anything with it or is it new mobo time?

Need more info. On some like Compaq, a corrupted CMOS may result
in a totally dead PC.
