Ok heres goes .. i have this MOBO: http://www.hothardware.com/hh_files/Motherboards/soltek_sl75mrnl.shtml and after i had recieved a few parts and assembled this computer i ran into a weird problem, it wasnt sending any signal to the monitor. So i took it all apart and only used teh cpu : Athlon xp 2000, the MOBO, and some memory: Kingston's 256MB 333Mhz DDR 266 MHz compatible. when i tried turning it on i got teh same problem. This motherboard is new and for some reason i think it might teh case its in .. its not being sold anymore but teh reason i think this is because i tried another mobo in it and got teh same problem.
In more detail teh problem im having is when i turn on my computer it powers up everything from graphics card to keyboard but does not boot up into teh BIOS or make any beeps. it does not show any error msg because it is sending no signal to teh monitor .. the jumpers are set correctly also. i have a feeling it does not even do a POST. ive tried using 2 diff power supplies 1 with a switch 550 watt and a 450 watt no switch .. 2 diff HD which only 1 makes teh crunchies and lights up the HDD LED. ive used 2 diff types of video cards but niether has been installed seeing how ive never booted this machine up before. i have 2 perfectly fine athlon 200 xp cpus to try .. 1 is .13 and teh other .18. ive tried 2 diff types of memory which both were compatible and finally ive used 2 diff monitors, both monitors work fine.
any tips or suggestions would be very very very helpful and i will try anything to get my baby running
