Try your RAM to see if they are defective

Re seat your CPU, it might not be seated properly, especially the heat sink

make sure you bolted your mobo correctly

Aswell, just to make sure, you put back the 4pin 12v to the mobo? You have the long 24pin to give power to your mobo, and there is a 2x2 pin 12v cable connected beside the CPU

1) CMOS jumper is a method of resetting your BIOS to defaults instead of taking the battery out and discharging your system to reset. Its an easier way to reset your BIOS if your Overclocking wouldn't boot.

2) No, not possible.

Sorry to hear your system will still not work...

Something to look for, pyshically take a look on your motherboard, and take a look at the caps (Capacitors) ... They should have a flat Top on them, place your finger on them and "feel" that the tops are flat, if they are not flat and they have a bump, then your Mobo is defective.

As you can see on the pictures, those caps are BAD . The top parts have a bump and cracked open. Mobo is defective

You can leave everything installed on your computer, reseting the CMOS will only affect the Motherboard, no other hardware.

Best is to read your User manual of how to use the Pin Reset CMOS and give it a try.

Do you have another Powersupply around you can try?

I would reccomend not to plugin your HDD, and your optical drive, just your VideoCard and everything else to post your computer
