I am helping a buddy of mine upgrade his old computer, I bought him a new mobo, an MSI g31tm-p21.
It has an intel pentium d dual core processor, 1 stick of geil 2gb ddr2 667, a 550w ps, and a good hard drive.
When first installed all of the new components, the system booted up once and I couldn't get it to boot again. After going through all of the steps in the thread about no video/post, I realized that it will boot up only once and only after resetting the CMOS. I have tried changing my memory settings, boot sequences, etc. but to no avail. I can still only get one boot only after resetting the CMOS.
Please tell me someone here has some kind of experience with this problem? All of the threads I have used the search function for seem to be unanswered. If someone could direct me to a post like mine that was answered it would be greatly appreciated.
