I just bought a GA-7vt600 1394 motherboard. For one thing I didn't
get it with RAID yet it installed RAID drivers. No problems just
weird.
I'm using an Athlon 2700+. When I installed the heatsinc and CPU, and
boot up, I got a heat warning. The European sounding siren thing.
That happened a few times. I tried two heatsinks both of which are
good ones, I forget which one though... They don'thave names printed
on. Scratch that - one is by Spite. It has a fan the size of the
case fans on it - still got the warning. So Iput te other oneback in.
Same thing. I went into the bios a few times and fooled around to no
avail. I used the "reset to optimal" option and I didn't get the heat
siren anymore. I was able to install Windows XP, MS Office 2003, and
Symantec Antivirus. My question is, what the heckhappened? Could the
bios have been set wrong from the factory?
