I have changed the SDRAM and checked. It doesnot work.
I need to solve this issue soon.Any Help is greatly appreciated.

1. Replace the CMOS battery. No, I decline to list the 20 names this battery is called.
2. Inspect for BAD CAPS. Yes, you research BAD CAPS on google and inspect the motherboard, cards and power supply for any domes, leakers, or tilters.
Good hunting,
Bob
Give your PSU a nice smell. Any burnt plastic kind of smell or just the usual?
Also give a cursory glance to the wiring; nothing is obstructing any fans, right?
