Hi,
I have built the machine several months ago. My machine’s features are:
Motherboard: Asus A7V266 – E
CPU: Athlon 1600 XP AMD (1.4 GHz)
RAM: 512 MB PC2100 Kingston
Video: 32 MB Viper V770 Ultra (TNT2)
Harddrive: 20 GB Western Digital
O.S. Linux Redhat 7.1
The problem is that nothing comes on the screen, not even BIOS during the boot. When PC powers up, the red light came on for 2 seconds and that’s it. CD ROM’s light did came on but it lasted like 5 seconds.
I tried to unplug everything inside and put them back on. Nothing worked. I changed the power connectors to harddrive. Nothing. Then I changed harddrive (8 GB W.D.) and it didn’t work either. I switched the video card with other, nothing. So, I only could conclude that the problem could be either motherboard or CPU or both. How do I know which is working or which is not working?
Thanks.
