When I turn on my computer no lights are on nothing shows up on the monitor and only the fans work and there is no beeping.I thought it was my mobo so I got a new one and new memory and installed it in the same case and it did the samething.If you have any idea what it could be please tell me.THANKS

Disconnect everything except 1 ram, cpu, and video card. If it still does not power up, it's 99% chance of power supply
