HI all ,
Ok, I just completed putting together the following system...
amd XP 2600, Asus A7N8X-VM M/B, 2x256M ram, etc.
When I turned it on for the first time, it made some strange ticking noise, then the monitor made a couple of cracking noises as it turned on and off.
It shows the 'Asus' screen (which I can get into the BIOS from), then it goes blank for a second and gives me the following message:
'REBOOT AND SELECT PROPER BOOT DEVICE
OR INSERT BOOT MEDIA IN SELECTED BOOT DEVICE AND PRESS A KEY'
can anybody help i dont know what to do from here???
thanks
john
