Need help with new motherboard
"Endulini" wrote in message news Hi, Sorry this is somewhat off topic but it's DIY in a sense and I've always found the computer knowledge base in this NG extremely helpful and well informed. I've just installed a new Intel DJ35JO mobo + Duo E6600 in an old case that I've had around for a while, the PSU is a relatively new 24 pin ATX 500v . The processor + fan were already installed so I plumbed in the board, PSU (both 4 pin and 24 pin plugs) + 1GB memory and fired up to see if it it was working ok. Both LEDs on the board lit to show they were functioning ok but the system doesn't boot to the BIOS nor is there any output to the monitor. There are no POST beeps either - just silence. I tried removing the memory card and booting and that did elicit the expected 3 beep no memory warning so I'm sure the board is ok..... I'm kind of stuck at this point, can anyone provide me with a way forward? Cheers Thanks Everyone, problem sorted. Not to sure what exactly it was but resetting the CMOS and reseating the memory got everything going. Still no POST beep though!! |

Newer Intel motherboards tend not to have the on-board sounder. -- Use the BIG mirror service in the UK: http://www.mirrorservice.org *lightning protection* - a w_tom conductor |
