Hi,

I've just built two new computers the first one worked perfectly fine everything went the way it should have. Now the second one has the exact same parts except the cpu on this one is AM2 5600 and not AM2 6000. The Problem is that once i put the graphics card in , the computer doesn't boot up, the lights flash at the front at thats all(only have power plugged in no monitor). when i take the graphics card out it boots up with 1long and 2short beeps which is the video error or whatever ...

Specs for computer are :

AM2 5600+ - CPU
Gigabyte S-Series GA-M57SLI-S4 - Motherboard
Asus EN8600gts 256m - graphics
2gig kingston ram kit
250gig maxtor hd


Any help will be much appreciated

Forgot to mention the PSU is 600watts , and when i tried turning it on for the 1st time it worked .. was on for a good 5min, when i went to plug in keyboard + mouse and reboot .. it didn't turn on anymore.
