I have just aquired an second hand AK38n mobo. I have tried the following
setup:
Video Asus radeon 9600se
CPU Athlon 1.4
3 different types of ram DDR 400 512MB OCZ and plain vanilla and also 256mb
DDR 333 Samsung
This setup won't boot. it powers up without hitting the power switch and
gives a continuous series of long beeps.
I know the video card works as it came out of another computer, likwise the
ram and cpu.
My suspicion is that
1.the video card is incompatible as it is an AGP8x and the board is 4x(the
monitor does not come out of standby)
2.the ram is incompatible or
3. the board is dead
If I reset the bios then the board does not power up until on button is
pressed.
I also tried an old matrox millenium 2 PCI video.... same problem with this.
Any hints/help gratefully received
