I have a friends PC (tell me about it)

any way when I switch on the power light comes on. Both power supply and CPU fans come on. Hard Drive light comes on and it spins for a couple of seconds. Then nothing - no beeps, no display

Are there any simple steps to check MotherBoard and other hardware without a complete strip/rebuild.
Have I missed the problem?

cheers for any pointers - N'Bloke
