installed second hand mobo into new case, this board was removed from a working pc, after being wired up & switched on the heat sink & case fans kick into life also cd rom lights light up, hard drive motors also work, replaced bios battery, power pack & flashed bios, did notice when flashing bios there was no fan rotation when powering up the mobo when removing bios memory, this mobo was stored in an anti static bag & boxed for six months prior to re use, tried powering mobo with every think disconected from board, still wont post & no graphics

- I am using three 512mb sticks of ram, each ram is from a different manufacturer, Kingston, Crutial & Twinmos, the processor is an AMD athlon 3700 to suit a 939 socket.
One or more of the memory modules is incompatible. Install only one and attempt to boot, swap with another until it will boot, then add memory until it will no longer boot.
Sounds like an experiment I did on a mobo seeing how quickly a cpu shuts off without proper cooling. You don't mention which fan, but if the cpu fan is not working then your cpu is going into shutdown. Same would happen if cpu fan worked but not installed properly. But would show bios startup. Also flashing the bios is risky and can ruin a mobo. Possibly the mobo already had a problem before you got it. Check all wires and connections and especially the cpu fan
