So you guys remember me saying that my asus motherboard broke..... well i was overclocking my athlon II 620 to see how high it could go
i got to about 3.6ghz and then i think i saw the northbridge over 100C, it went dwon though, so i continued and then bios said overclocking failed so i stoped but then i booted up and everything to reset to my old stardard 3.1ghz on reboot i got absolutely NOTHING the fans were on that was all no lights on mobo like usual so another rma anyone... ihope

Just hope nobody at Asus reads these forums

Well ... so we might start talking about Gigabytes motherboards ... just to show that they're all in the same boat ...
Have you tried clearing CMOS memory, by chance? Sometimes that is necessary to regain the factory starting point when the machine won't let you into the BIOS. Be sure and do it in accordance with the user's manual, but unplug the power supply from the wall socket and disconnect the power supply from the motherboard, then clear it. Then reconnect everything and try to boot up.

If that's the case then chances are you have a bad motherboard. But, before jumping to conclusions, try stripping it of everything except the CPU, one stick of memory, and a video card to see if it will even show a screen with anything on it during POST. If you have and it still won't post and you are positive it isn't a bad video card then either the power supply or motherboard is bad.Sorry for the late replies by the way.
