I have this problem: Machine running Windows 2k Professional, 1.1 Ghz Celeron, all on board. Turn on…gets power..it turns off by itself.\ No post, no beeps, no video, can’t access the BIOS! Put new processor…nothing. New case….nothing.
If anybody has any idea to solve this issue please help!

Did the computer work before? have you tried to overclock it? Cause the CPU has a multiplier lock, if you try to set the multiplier to another value the cpu will not work.
