Nope the monitor light stays on standby, though it sounds like it is POSTing and whatnot. No error beeps or anything.

As for popping in my own videocard, I wish I could but it is AGP and the board has just PCI-E. Not sure if my power supply will fit in the case, but thinking of just buying a cheap one to see if it makes a difference...I'm betting when I get home from work it will turn on, which leads me to think it's a CPU overheat or maybe a VPU overheat?

Thanks for the input so far!
