Chime but no display

You can hear the boot chime but no display on screen.

Is the mobo dead?

It could be. It could also be a monitor problem or a monitor cable problem.

No, the chime occurs after the Power-On-Self-Test has passed. So the mobo isn't completely dead, although there could be a problem with the onboard video.

In any case, it sounds like a video problem, I'd check the monitor and cable connections first, and test the monitor on another computer if you have one.

If it's a hard drive model, do you hear the hard drive booting up the OS?

Update:
Can hear chime
Can hear hard drive spin
Do not hear fan
Do not see output on monitor
Do not see front light

Could bad RAM or battery cause this?
