Computer stops on bootup

I have a computer that the fans would run but no beep and no video.   I disconnected everything except the video, nothing.   I replaced the PS and now it boots to the page that tells about the American Megatrends BIOS and it tells that it has a Celeron chip then it stops there.   There is no post beep either.   If it got this far, the board, chip and RAM should be ok, shouldn't it?   What should I do next?   It is running Windows XP

I found the CMOS solder points via the motherboard manual online.   I did what the manual said to clear the CMOS.   I tried it twice, but it still doesn't go any further.
