Nothing Boots-Only M/Board Light Comes ON! Jake 07-18-05

This is my first build, so I’m probably doing something vey wrong.
Here is what I purchased:
1. ASUS P4S800-MX (socket 478)
2. Intel Cerleron D Processor 335 (2.80 GHz, 533 MHz FSB, UP Only)
3. Rosewill DDRAM PC3200 (1 GB)
4. 200 GB HD

I’ve gone through 3 different power supplies with the same result.
All I get is the M/Board light (no beeping, no fans, nothing). I
tried bench testing the M/Board with only the power supply, CPU, and
memory, but it still won’t boot. I’ve re-seated the CPU and memory,
but still nothing. Does anyone have advice? Am I even using
compatible hardware? Any help wouldbe greatly appreciated.
