Went to Fry's this afternoon, purchased the above items.
Got them installed and working, booted up first thing. no
problems at all except my PC does not seem to be
operating at a speed I think it should be.
My problem with this thinking is that I have no idea how to
set the BIOS. Tried different settings, then just put every-
thing to default. Nothing changed but I still would like to
speed the system up if I could. I'm comparing speed now
against an XP 1900 with same model MB.

Hey,

I got the same deal from Fry's (talk about advertisement) got the
board/cpu combo. I also got a GeForce4 MX 440/MX4000 AGP 64MB video
card, with an Xdreamer case. I turn the pc on, the fan goes, but the
hard drive does not spin. HERE'S THE KICKER! When i disconnect the IDE
cable but leave the power SUPPLY in the Hard drive and turn the
computer back on, the hard drive tries to boot and i get no video.
It's like the mobo disables the IDE cable when plugged into the hard
drive.

PLEASE HELP!! :?:

Try clearing the motherboard bios.
