Just puchased new system,gigabyte ga-7va motherboard, Amd 2000+ cpu, samsung pc2700 ddr ram, 350watt Omni power supply and a geforce 4 video card.
Put system together and switched it on, powered up for a max of 5 sec then swithed off. before any display on the monitor or beeps were heard from case speaker. Stripped it down to power switch and cpu, still same prob! removed cpu, m\board stayed powered up! Onboard fan and cpu fan both work while 5 sec power is on! Changed cpu with one out of another working system, same prob. tried sw1 switch in all positions no change. Tried new ddr ram, in other sockets, no change! tried new 350watt power supply, no change! There are no other settings on the board for the cpu, only in bios, but system doesn't even get that far! returned m\board thinking it must be at fault, but replacement board same story! Am I missing some basic stupid setting or what. I'm at a loss. Any ideas would be appriciated!
