I just installed the Intel DP35DP with an Intel Core Duo processor, I also added the required DDR2 RAM. I also upgraded the power supply. When I turn on the computer nothing happens. The monitor says No Video Detected and the USB ports don't work (i.e., I plug in any USB device like my lighted keyboard and nothing happens). I also have a new GeForce 7600 PCI-E graphics card.
The first time I turned it on after installation the initial Intel screen asking me whether I wanted to use F2 to configure the system. I couldn't do it because my USB keyboard, USB mouse, etc doesn't work. When I powered off and on again I get absolutely nothing but the blank video screen.
Wow ;) LOL
So you wont need USB drivers in dos. Your bios will enable usb support on its own. It is called USB/Legacy support.
As for the system not booting. Your keyboard wont stop it from booting.
So lets start with some basic TS Steps.
First: Remove any extra perfiral devices. (keyboard, mouse, expansion cards, modem, hdd, cd rom. Everything) You want NOTHING connected.
ONLY Connect,
Power Supply
1 Stick of Memory
CPU w/ CPU Fan
Video Card (be sure to plug in the card to the PCI-E power as well)
Still get nothing?
Disconnect the power, remove the CMOS Battery, and wait 5min. Plug it back in and see what you get.
Report back and we will get you going.

You should try a regular ps/2 mouse and keyboard. You probably don't have the USB drivers installed for the new board. After you get booted into windows you'll be able to install those.

How annoying... I guess my last message didn't make it.
So lets start with what you got. Forget the USB problem. Your pc doesn't get to that point.
Here are the things you should do.
First
Remove ALL extra devices connected to the pc including:
Hard drives
Cdroms
Modems
Expansion cards of any kind
The ONLY thing that should be connected is:
Power Supply
CPU
1 Stick of Ram
Video Card
Next
Now REMOVE the Power Cable from the PSU
Remove the BATTERY from the main board.
Let it sit for about 5minutes.
Now
Place the battery back into the board
Plug in the pc
Press the power button
What happens?
Do you get any message on the monitor now?
Sounds ?
Anything?
You should get at minimum another chance to press F2 and reset the bios.
Post your results and we can get you going.

Hi, the best solution I see is to log on to the makers website locate the download and support for your board and download the manual [usualy in PDF] and also a copy of your boards drivers. I had to do exactly this with an Acer board with USB mouse & keboard sockets. Regards mistyman

The motherboard of the Presario C700 has two RAM slots, one of them will be occupied by the 512MB RAM (running at 667MHz) module you have at present. This leaves one more that can accomodate a DDR2 667Mhz card of up to 1GB or you could get two 1GB DDR2 800MHz (the faster DDR2) cards and remove the 512 leaving you with a wopping 4GB of memory, that'll definately speed it up. Just remember the Presario C700 can only have up to 2GB of RAM so don't go higher than that or Windows will not boot for some reason.You needed to configure bios (F2) when you first installed the processor,
now the Bios hangs before anything can happen, You need to remove the Bios Battery (looks like a coin on the mobo) for about 30 secs (with the power disconnected) then re-insert the battery and power on.
you should get the same power on message as you did the 1st time (maybe with a missings settings error too but this is expected)
Enuro12 is right about legacy USB in that your keyboard should work in BIOS (setup)

Unfortunately the DP35DP doesn't come with PS/2 connections for the mouse and keyboard. Strictly USB.
