1600sc PowerEdge Power Failure

Hi,

 

I stripped down all the parts from a Dell PowerEdge 1600sc Server to clean it before reinstating it. On plugging in, the LED motherboard light (labelled D2, between the power connector and the front panel connector) lights green (continuous) but there is no other activity, no boot, no beeps, no post, nothing.

 

I connected only the system HD (IDE), inserted memory (2x 512Mb) and single processor (single processor system only), fans, front panel connector, mouse, keyboard and monitor. All other hardware not connected until I was sure the system would boot.

The first time on powering up the fans came on and then powered off after 5 seconds. Now nothing happens. Any suggestions?
