My friend gave me a free mainboard, its an abit KV7 with all the bells n whistles, SATA, 5.1 audio, optical. http://www.abit.com.tw/page/en/motherboard/motherboard_detail.php?pMODEL_NAME=KV7&fMTYPE=Socket A Problem though, it wont do jack. It wont turn on or make a peep. I don't see any lights on it either. He said it might have a bad cap on it but the board is in brand new condition. I'm testing it with known-to-be-good cpu/mem/psu. Is there a way to do an RMA on this board and replace it, or any good sites for diagnosing problems like this? Oh yeah, he gave me a free psu too, im using it now and its kickass. http://www.pcabusers.com/reviews/trueblue/p1.html
it might help if you call abit and coomplain that you bought it and it doesn't work at all, complain it's faulty maybe you can get a new one
They have a very very easy eRMA process, if it is under warranty. The only problem is that it takes a very long time.
