Not able to switch on the mothere board. Green led on the board glows but the system is not powering on.

sOMEHOW YOU BLEW THE 48 v PHANTOM SUPPLY.
Open it up and check power board voltages.
Replace regulator circuit and check for shorts on your mic cables.

Hi, this is main board failure and you will need to replace this vital board. you power board is fine but, it is unable to send a proper current through the main mother board due to the damage at hand.

maybe the batts are dead or you have failed cell or bloc.

Hi Franceso, plz specify
Is it powering ON ?
Which LED is glowing?
These leds are there on the front panel :

1 Power On/Standby button
2 System power LED
Green = Power on
Amber = System shut down, but power still applied
Off = No power

3 Internal health LED (Wave sign in BOX)
Green = Normal
Amber = System degraded. To identify the component in a degraded state, refer to system board LEDs.
Red = System critical. To identify the component in a critical state, refer to system board LEDs.
Off = Normal (when in standby mode)

4 External health LED (power supply)
Green = Normal
Amber = Power redundancy failure
Red = Critical power supply failure
5 NIC 1 activity LED Green = Network link
Flashing = Network link and activity
Off = No link to network.
6 UID LED Blue = Activated
Flashing = System remotely managed
Off = Deactivated
7 UID button

If it is Internal health led then any internal h/w issue is suspected.
If it is external health led then any power supply or power source related issue is suspected.
Also check the status of the server & its IML (Integrated Management Logs) in ilo (Integrated Lights Out ) if it is configured. (2nd RJ45 port in rear)

Also make sure the cabinet is properly closed.

connection to the motherboard as per your query is not critical. you can do trial and error method, since an LED connected in reverse will not damage it, but just show no glow. so just reverse again, if it glows then its okay if still no glow then the LED is dead. Anyway, if you need the manual you can download from this link: http://global.msi.com.tw/index.php?func=downloadfile&dno=3825&type=manual

Hi kausik, that green led you see on the motherboard is just letting you know there is power to the board. (This is normal).
You'r CPU fan jerking & stopping is a bad thing & has nothing to do with standby mode. Your CPU fan needs to be replaced.
There are a bunch of Asus 945 boards, just click the link to see.

If you are able to remove the fan from the heatsink than you may be able to buy a fan from here.

Most people replace both heat sink & fan.

Have more questions, feel free to ask.
Good Luck!
Mike

remove all pwoer connector from motherboard and short green and black wire in supply shocket.If supply is run then it is the problem of motherboard.

check the connections between your mother board and power supply. if it is in tack and still wont work replace your power supply.
