Please, help me! I need an information: I have a mobo Asus A7M266 with the lever of the cpu socket broken, so now i can install or remove a cpu moving the socket by hands...
I don't know which version of bios the mobo has, but however an old version.
I never used this mobo (now i have a [-peep-] of A7A266) and I've bought an AMD XP+1700. I know that A7M266 support that processor but needs to upgrade the bios. Unfortunately when I've installed all components my pc doesn't start, but there is power on the mobo and all components. So I need to know if the mobo could be broken or if the pc can't start cause the old version of BIOS. Thanks a lot at you all and sorry for my poor english!!!
