if trying the m/b outside the case does not help then it is definitely psu issue.
Thanks Obama. That did the trick. I guess one of screws was shorting the MB somewhere. On removing the MB outside, it started working. Now I have connected everything back, CPU boots up (looks like the dealer did update the MB ). Now I am using my computer with my Samsung 2233sw, and it is good and I can hardly hear any noise from my cabinet.

Yay... Thanks to all of your inputs. Also this forum actually helped in choosing some of the components, though this being the first thread.
