Motherbaord doesn't detect any pci card

[klabaza]

Hi people.

I have been fighting with a MB Intel D865PERL. This MB was working very well, but the last time this one was working we never need it to use his PCI slots.

Now that we need to used I have problems. The system is working, it has 1 AGP for the video external and the internal LAN connector.

The problem is that if I insert PCI cards(scsi, video, nic) doesn't detect nothing.

I had been testing with a bunch of cards, some of those card are working, specially the SCSI card is a PCI card 6 months old, this card rigth now handle the tape drive of my current backups system and in this moment is working.

I have been playing with the BIOS settings, moving the cards in all the free slots(5) and no answer.

I went to the Intel site and this MB is running the last BIOS.

Is the first time I'm in front a problem like this one.

The last thing to do is to again update the BIOS and see what happen.

People in your experience, what else u recommend me to do before I go to buy a new system?

Thanks all for your time!!!

Sounds like the voltage is not getting to the PCI slots...

meaning, the board is probably toast, end result: buy a new mobo/system...

Well, I finally conclude that this MB is like u say BadBigBen toast!!!

I have change the power supply with a new one, and same situation, no answer from any slot.

Latter I try to update the BIOS and is not possible because I'm using the same one(latest).

Drivers, I don't think sow, because this is not related to any OS.

Them I will purchase a new one, my last option.

Thanks all for your help, see latter!!!
