PC won't boot

Hello to all. I have been having a lot of trouble with a system that I have been working on. Its a Asus A7V133-C, AMD Duron 1.2, 256mb ram.. I was able to get it to boot and started installing WinXP, but with about 20mins to go, the system blacked out. I rebooted and the setup continued. The same thing happened, but now the system won't boot. I have power to the mb, the processor fan spins for a sec and stops. There is no power to anything else. I took everything off the mb except the video card and tried to boot it, no luck. Any help would be appreciated.

Sounds like powersupply dropping dead on you. If you know how to test a powersupply while connected to a motherboard then do it. If not. Get a new one. There cheap.
