I tried another stick of RAM, I do not know if that is bad or not also. It gives me the same error when there is no RAM on the board. Is it possible its the motherboard? I don't think the board is worth getting another stick of RAM over. If I were to abandon this board could I be able to use the CPU without it damaging another mobo? I think the mobo got shorted, this case is very odd. When I attach a screw in a certain area the motherboard won't power at all or for half a second and shuts down. When I remove the screw it powers up like normal but with beep error. And if I put a screw in another spot it will power up with out giving me beep error, but there is still no video. I also tried screw sheilds to keep it from shorting the motherboard from the case, but it doesn't work. I am only able to screw one area, and another area very lightly to get it to power and give me POST.
