    Howdy,
    I have an IQON PC which will not switch on have checked power supply on another PC and this works ok.On closer inspection the Celeron D chip has 1 pin missing when it was removed from board.I am wondering if the board is dependent on chip being present on board and fault free for board to switch on or is board power on independent of the chip???

    I said without a chip not without a pin.
    "timer chip"" +power good signal" google it
    I don't hack cpu's or solder pins(or pen) of them together so i don't know what your asking me......
