Hi,
I am new to this site so if you can just bear with me...
I have the following setup:
MOTHERBOARD: ASUS Crosshair SKT AM2 nForce 590 SLI DDR2
PROCESSOR: AMD Athlon 64 X2 Dual Core 6400+ Socket AM2 Black Edition 3.20GHz
PSU: Enermax Galaxy 1000W CrossFire EGA1000EWL ATX2.2
MEMORY: 4x1Gb Ballistix Tracer 240-pin DIMM (with LEDs), DDR2 PC2-6400, 4-4-4-12, Unbuffered, NON-ECC, DDR2-800, 2.2V, SLI-Ready, 128Meg x 64
HARDDISK: 2x Caviar SE 250GB 16MB SATA II
VGA: XFX GeForce 8800GTX 570M 768MB
SCREEN: VG2230WM 22 inch Monitor WSXGA+ TFT LCD
CHASSIS: Thermaltake Tai-Chi Super Tower (Watercooling)
If the LED is OFF, the computer does not boot, either the button on the chassis OR the button on the motherboard.
If the LED is ON, it does with either buttons (chassis or motherboard), but the LED screen at the back of the motherboard displays CPU-INIT.
The fans work but there is no beep sound when the system boots.
The hard disk LED on the chassis is illuminated (red), but the power LED is NOT illuminated.
I have replaced the motherboard (the supplier said the old one was faulty and sent me a new one).
I have not connected the watercooling system yet, I want to know that the system is running before I do that. I am using a heatsink/fan for the processor.
I have tried to clear the CMOs and upgrade to the latest one 0902, but cannot get that far.
I have read elsewhere, that I need to use a lower voltage memory and taking out the nattery etc...
I have purchased a stick of low voltage 1.8V memomry from Crucial and still this does not get passed CPU-INIT.
I was wondering if it is a compatibility issue.
Can someone please confirm that the hardware is compatible?
Any other advice will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance
