Thanks all for the help, but no luck

I just don't understand - brand new mobo, brand new cpu, mem, etc, and this is to fix a problem I had on my old one not booting.

I did the whole reseating, taking it out of the case and laying the mobo on a non-conductive mat with just the cpu and mem. Tried it without mem. Shorted the PS instead of using the lead from the case. I'm pretty disgusted with it right now :
I thought it wasn't the cpu, because when the machine died before, I was able to move it into another machine, which worked fine. So I thought it was the mobo. Now that I'm on my 2nd mobo, that doesn't look to be the case either. Case has been ruled out, PS ruled out... grrr.... I think I'm just not supposed to have this assembledge of parts called a computer.
