Whenever a new setup won't post, I usually try it out on top of the motherboard box, out of the case. Be sure you use both the 20 pin atx connector and power switch lead.

Why would you buy the motherboard without reading the manual first? Now you wonder about the options? Here's what to do: Take out the CD-rom drive and put a stick of dynamite in that case. Light the fuse, sit on the case and count to 100! You will be making a lot of folks happy and solving all your problems at the same time!

I bought the mobo to put the old chip and memory in, bro, because it was dirt cheap. At that point I had no intention of doing anything with it but using it as a back-up. Now since apparently nothing works but the mobo I either basically write the mobo off, or put some really, really cheap components in it..or..make that the new build I have been planning on.

And although your comment has no bearing whatsoever on any f*ing thing, are you saying you read the entire manual for a motherboard before you buy it? I have only put two systems together myself. I used the manuals to get the information I wanted out of them but...can't say I read any of them cover to cover at any point. Not the most entertaining casual read in my book.

That other stuff...now that's just cold blooded, dude
