Your Q840 does more than mine Robert, but I guess that's not much consolation.
I've done everything talked about here including changing PSU, processor AND caps. It still gives no chime or video. All I can do is turn it on and off!
It's a job to know when to call it quits with something like this. With hindsight, I wish I'd never wasted so much time on it. Just save the working parts for future projects is my advice....

Have to
admit it has to be the caps. Anyone have some simple
instructions on how to clean around the caps to see if it
boot fully once before replacing them?

Surely with the drive unplugged, it
wouldn’t matter and he’d get the flashing question mark?
This has to be a capacitors problem.
