K7N2G-L

AMD Athlon XP 2200+
MSI K7N2G-L
Corsair CMX512-2700C2PT (tried OCZ and Kinston as well)
WD800 (tried two of these)
Cyberdrive 40/16/48 (tried anotehr 56X CD-ROM)
Antec case w/SL300S PS (tried SL350)

It posts, but very very slow, and will not complete setup. It fails to recognise the HD after setup formats it. The drive is fine though - it works in another computer.

Please help if you have a solution.


<font color=red><i>such madness</i></font color=red>

I just picked up a refurb of this board myself. Wierd, everything was fine until I changed some settings in the BIOS. Now, it won't post and I'm getting a beep codes of HIGH low HIGH low. I think that's the beep for bad CPU but I strongly doubt it just died after an eighth of a second.

I pulled the battery out, but is there another way to clear settings on these boards?

if your not using it disable the onboard lan as this can really slow up boot times.

I'm out of my mind, but feel free to leave a message.

Have same problem. Running xp2100 with corsair xms 2700 dual. Post ok but load up XP to a crawl. I tried 3 different single channel ddr 2700(kingston,mushkin,and generic) and it was worthless. Have my second RMA and same problem. I just don't know if I have the right memory??? Well try 3200 corsair xms.
