After all that waffle and piffle, you never even once conidered removing the
****ing DVD drive. Right?


Wow, you're quick to jump to conclusions. If you read the post, you'll
notice that:

"...I've tried replacing the power supply, and I've tried removing all
my hardware (other than
RAM), so I'm thinking it must be motherboard related."

Might as well try taking the RAM and putting em back in different slots.
Chip creep & all that...

So yes, of course I removed the DVD drive. Logically, the first thing
to try...


I'd **** around in the BIOS...but then I like to **** around in the BIOS.
Post the model # of you DVD drive.
Need more info.
