New Build fine for about 6 months

I built the following pc: 420W power supply, Asus P5LD2-VM, intel Pentium D 830, Artic Cooling Freezer 7 Pro CPU Fan, 2 Corsair ddr2 533MHz 1Gb sticks, asus dvd-rw, and floppy. This setup was amazing for about 6 months. It just won't turn on. I hit the power button and all the fans turn on all the light on the dvd drive turn on but no video. I don't even get a bios flash. I have tried putting in a PCI video card, I have tried replacing the memory with Kingston 256 suggested by asus, I have tried replacing the motherboard with Asus P5RD2-VM, and have even tried a new cpu. None of these worked. I don't get any video at all. I just have to say I am stumped. Please any suggestions would be appreciated. Thank You
