That board ought to be compatible with the celeron since it is a Socket 478. Check the board to make sure that it is set for 400MH since it is capable of running at 533MH.

If you have you internal speaker plugged in you should hear on of 2 sounds that means either there is something wrong with your screencard or your RAM, but is you dont hear anything at all and the PC wont start up at all then you have a problem with either the motherboard or the processor. Take both the mobo and pro to a shop and ask them to test both indivitually.
