Hi guys
First, Martin:I know the heatsink is in the correct position because I've put 3 different heatsinks on this board whle trying to fire it up and each one that I've removed had left the impression of the center of the cpu in the thermal paste. They all have a camphored area on the base...
Okay; the heatsink is installed the in the correct position with the fan connected to the cpu fan port and applied with thermal paste. I've even switched the heatsink/fan with an older one. I have tried switching the jumpers one at a time and restarted it with the same results but I haven't done...
I'm sorry I forgot to tell you I installed a new Cooljag heatsink/fan combo. This is an AMD Athlon XP 2700 O.E.M. Thourobred processor/ fsb333 and the mobo is an ASUS A7N8X-X
with Nvidia N-force chipset/ Phoenix D686 BIOS.
Hi everybody!
I just installed a new ASUS A7N8X mobo with a new Athlon XP2700 cpu in my chassis and when I turn it on it runs for approximately 5 seconds then shuts down. I checked the jumpers for the correct FSB speed and replaced the power supply with a new 550 watt PSU - still to no avail...
I recently purchased a used Shuttle mobo with AMD 1800XP processor off Ebay ( I know; It's a shot in the dark!) The Mobo model # is AK32V2.1 and it accepts either PC133 SDRAM or PC2100 DDR RAM. It has a Pheonix D686 BIOS installed.
This is just an extra computer that I'm building out of...
Thanks for the tip bcastner; I'll give it a try and see how it goes - by the way by just browsing these forums I can see that you do this site great service!
Okay, I bought a LinkSys LNE100TX ver.5.1 and installed it today. The LinkSys doesn't shut me down but when downloading or just trying to open web page it drags to the point that my mouse curser will stop repeatedly - but at least it's not killing me. I tried different ports with the Netgear...
Sorry Guys that I didn't respond quicker; my computer crashed during the night and I just got it back up.
When I removed my old AGP card I installed the new PCI video card in the first PCI slot and moved the network card from the second PCI slot to the third PCI slot.I also removed all traces...
This past week I took out my AGP video card and replaced it with a Verto 5200 PCI card. Since my previous card required the slot closet to the the AGP port to be open I put the new card in that slot then MOVED my network card down 1 slot so the new card could breathe.
Now whenever I'm...
I'm afraid I already tried that - tried something new today and really it was quite simple. I picked up a new ATX case, power supply, motherboard/ 1.2 Gig processor and 512 megs of PC133 RAM and now it works fine!
Thank you Ed Fair and Grandpa Carl for your help - I know I'll find some...
I'm sorry I should've let you know in the first post that I've changed the video card, cable and monitor to no avail. I also should've said that the keyboard does flash and the hard drive is spinning. There is no picture and no beeps at all.
That's what I thought too. I changed the power supply from a 250 watt to a 300 watt; pulled everything and re-installed memory and agp card and made sure the voltage was set at 115 on the power supply and still have the same results.
Hi Guys,
My computer was having restart problems ( kept rebooting during startup; abnormal fan noise) so i decided to tear it down and clean it 1 last time before I replaced the power supply as I've done many times before ( 2 dogs = lots of dust!). This time the power supply is working but...
