Yes, I actually tried it with another brand new psu which is working perfectly on another machine. As I mentioned on a previous post, the CPU fan started satying on after applying thermal grease to CPU. However, nothing would show up on monitor and no beeps would come out of mobo. After some...

Paparazi, I think the CPU works fine. We tried to start the mobo with another socket A CPU and it did the same thing, plus the mobo has a feature where it would shut down if it felt any overheating on the CPU (it would not stay on for more than 3 seconds before the thermal grease was on)...

Yes

I checked the cables on the hard drive and it's connected correctly. Could it be the CPU?? Any advise will be greatly appreciated. Mingyar

I added thermal grease to the CPU and it now stays on. It sounds like the hard drive is running, the CPU fan is running and all the mobo lights are on. However, nothing is comming up on my monitor at all. I already removed all PCI cards and drives except for the HDD. The mobo manual says it's a...

I just got an ASUS A7V8X-X with an Athlon XP 2400. When I turn on the power supply the Mobo power light will come on. However, when I try to boot the machine the CPU fan will come on like it's trying to start but then it stops and won't do anything else. I already check the memory installation...

The company that sold me the mobo is telling me that there is no way the mobo could have caugh fire unless I connected something wrong. I think that those *@$**& are just trying to deny that their product defective. They say that if the mobo has visible damage (caugh fire) they cannot exchange...

The switch was never changed. I had another motherboard connected to the same power supply and case before I got this one and I never had this problem. Is there anything else that could have caused this? Would this happen if one of the case connectors was hooked up incorrectly? Thanks, Your...

There were no sparks at all comming out of the power supply. All the sparks came out of the center of the mobo where a couple of seconds later the flame came out. I did see a litlle bit of smoke come out of the HDD cable or around the HDD area but my HDD is brand new (out of the box). Thanks...

I took the mobo out of the case and no screws or standoffs had fallen on it or were underneath the mobo. Is there anything alse that migth have caused this. I pretty sure everything was connected correctly but Could something connected incorrectly cause this?? Any comments would be appreciated.

I just received an Asus A7V8X-X with an Athlon Xp 2400 CPU. I have a 350w Power Supply and a GeForce4 MX 440 Graphs Card. I installed everything correctly including a brand new 80GB 7200 RPM Wetern Dig HDD. When I tried to boot for the first time my mobo started throwing sparks and the a small...

I think my power supple only has one fan. Do you anticipate any problems? and if so what would be a possible solution for that? I do have two case fans. Would that make any difference?

I just bought an Anthlon XP 2400 with an Asus A7V8X-X mobo. I have a 350W power supply on my case right now. What kind of power supply is recommended for this type of processor? Will mine work fine or do I need to get a new one? Any advice will be appreciated.

I'm not sure if this will take care of it but it's worth a try, 1. Go to lexmark's web site http://www.lexmark.com and download the latest driver for your specific printer. 2. Download the uninstall untility for your printer. 3. Run the uninstall untility. 4. Install the new driver. I've had...

bcastner, I tried what you said and I think it worked fine. I found the files on my processes and registry and removed them. I didn't get the problem again once I followed your suggestions. Hopefully everything will remain working fine. Thanks a lot!!!!

Hello everyone, I recently upgraded a machine from Win 98 to Win XP Home. The installation went through fine. However, after the installation was done I started getting an error message when connected to the internet. The message read something like "Generic Host Problem...your system will...

I don't think I loaded anything right before the modem problems. The weird thing is that after I had problems with my HDD I installed a second HDD that I wasn't using on my system and then tried to upgrade the current OS(Win 98) on that HDD to Win XP. As a result my other HDD also got messed up...

paparazi, I'm not a die hard Intel fan. I just have never had any experience with Athlon processors so I don't really know much about them. I'm certanly willing to try them out if I'm gonna get better performance with them. I'll definately research your suggestions and consider them as a...

Thanks a lot. I'll try that and see how it goes. In case it doesn't work I'm already doing research on what new mobo-cpu combo to get.
