my sister has had this board (my second k7s5a) with a tb 1.4. now out of the blue she calls me up just a few mins ago telling me the thing restarted and coming up with a blank screen (no video signal). had her make sure the video card was seated, ram, etc. still nothing. had her clear cmos, got it to boot, went into bios and she changed the clock frequency (from 100/100 to 133/133). that's about the only settings she needs changed. well back to the blank screen. had her clear it again and just see if she could boot to windows. it does, but wants to reinstall all hardware. do not know why exactly seeing that bios defaults should set it to acpi enable and pnp os yes. after 3 months now of normal operation it's starts this crap. the ram is from crucial 256mb ddr2100, psu is my old sparkle 400w and i know that thing is fine. so basically the thing won't boot up running 133/133 after it has been. as far as i know and what she told me, the computer hasn't been moved/jolted/no new hardware/etc. it's not that extensive of a system, just basic components: mobo, cpu, hdd, floppy, cdrw, video card and onboard lan/sound. now i get to go and drive for a couple hours out to her and see what's wrong.
