All of you are making wonderful suggestions. I'm planning on testing out all possible suggestions I've been given later on today, and hopefully I'll get a positive response. I am hoping that it's just a grounding issue, cause I dont want to have to send my mobo back and wait another week =)...

o ya...my computer isnt doing the POST test at all...it just turns on and spins fans...=/ is this a mobo or a processer problem? I tried unplugging everything (including ram/vid card) except the mobo and it still wouldnt do the POST test. =/ any ideas?

I looked at the asus site and through the handbook, and see nothing about integrated video/jumpers =(. The FAQ on the Asus website says that the A7N8X has no integrated VGA. Also, I've noticed that the computer doesnt beep when i turn it on, like (all that I've seen) others. It just turns on...

I'll look at the asus site, though I think i've checked what all the jumpers do in my mobo instruction book. Thanks guys.

I'd love to do that, except my motherboard doesnt come with onboard video, and if it does I dont see it. And I just reset the bios with that one jumper so =/

=/ my new stuff hates on me like that too...everything works but the monitor rests in sleep mode. I've tried a different video card, but same thing happens.

Since my original post really didnt say much, I'll elaborate: Im using an Asus A7N8X mobo with an Athlon xp 2600, thermaltake xaserIII v1000 case, thermaltake 480 watt silent purepower power supply with pfc, radeon 9500 pro. Everything is hooked up, the case fans spin, cpu fan spins, hard...

I built my new computer tonight, which is cool, everything turns on, fan on the vid card is spinning, everything is wonderful...except my monitor only shows the self-test. When I turn the computer on, the monitor goes black for a second then goes back to the self test =(( anyone have any ideas?

"Using ME" There's your problem =)...in my opinion Win ME is the worst thing to come out of Microsoft! ...then again it's just my opinion

Hehe, I think it's been drilled into my mind to get nothing less than a 400w Antec power supply. =) I guess my motherboard just hates me, probably 30 times in the year and a half that I've had it, the cpu settings in my bios would be reset to default >.< Does it matter if I get a Full ATX or a...

hmm, i dont know how a damaged IDE cable would kill my entire comp like that, though im not anywhere near a computer expert...if it's possible, could you outline how a damage IDE cable could affect my computer so greatly? (I have a few extras from hdds i've bought =p)

I'll check that as well once I have a chance...I really wish that I had that extra power supply with me, but it's at my friends house >.< Thanks!

I didnt make any changes to my computer before it didnt power up. When I hooked a different power supply up, my cpu fan would spin, my computer would be on for like 5-10 seconds and restart, before showing anything on the monitor. What I'm planning on doing is testing my video card and both...

Well, I havent really looked at cases/power supplies just yet, but I know that I'll eventually end up with a full atx case with at least a 400 watt power supply. Currently, for mobo/processer, I'm looking at http://www.micropro.com/item.htm?item_id=MBASA7V8X that motherboard w/the athlon xp2600...

Well since I checked my memory in another computer, im assuming that it's fine. Typically, I've heard, that's the first to go when something happens to your computer. If I had a good power supply w/me I'd be able to test my componants 1 by 1, but I dont it's at my friends and I'll have to wait...

I have a really bad motherboard, low-end (as I didnt know any better before buying it), made by Elitegroup, model number K7S5A, with an Athlon 1.4 chip in it. I dont have another CMOS battery that I can swap out atm, nor do I have the other power supply that I tried for reference, though I...

After waking up this morning, I turned on my computer as I alwasy do. I went to go make breakfast, came back 15 minutes later and my computer was off. I tried to turn it back on wouldnt work. Attempted plugging it in somewhere else didnt work. I figured it was my power supply. So I put a...
