OK Here is the deal. I have:

XP 2000+ CPU
K7T266 Pro2 MB
GeForce 4 Ti4200
60MB 7200 RPM HD (seagate)
333mghz DDR 256MB Ram
And a nice 400Watt PS Case

The deal is it turns on, but nothing shows up on the screen. I tested the vid card, case, mem, hd, and those all work fine. It must either be my Motherboard or CPU. But the thing is the Vid Car runs when I hit the power, so that means my MB is working right? So it must be the CPU? But I just had the CPU in my last system recently and that worked fine too. Im completely stumped.... Help =D Suggestions!

why live just to die?

sounds like a short or bad powersupply

3 386DX-25's...12 volts...glue and some ln2 and a wicked amount of overclocking and you get willamantee minus 36 pins, 33.75 million transistors and a couple hundred mhz... :cool:

see hwboss what you don't understand is women like stability in a relationship...and your 280 watt standard generic cpu just cannot provide the stability that they wan't...

damn. i new i should have bought atleast 2 vantec 520wt psu. that way that stability would have been there...

...or maybe it was because i spent $100 on a psu that i lost stability.



The customer is not always right.
If they were, they would do my job.
