Alright, I now have all of my components, hooked up, and ready to go. I turn on the computer, enter the motherboard setup, hit F6 for optimized performance. I save and exit, it starts to load windows, fails, I click "start windows normally", it starts to load, then says "5 seconds till shutdown" and we start all over again. It does this every time, even if I start in safemode or the last working settings...
This is the first PC i've made myself and it's entirely possible that i've hooked something up wrong, or I'm simply missing something in the setup. You guys are kind of my last chance at fixing this myself before I go give PC Club 60+ bucks to fix it :roll: So any help at all would be very appreciated.
Note: I am using my old hard drives and CD drives, if this makes a difference.
