hi i need some help maybe someone out there has had the same problem i was "tinkering" read the sig lol and when i restarted i got a "system fail cpu test" in my post i have an 1800 xp on the asus a7v333 board with 256 megs of 2700 ddr ram the pc won't post it just hangs but......
i thought i cooked the cpu so i took it apart and now i am back on my p111 800 i tryed the board and cpu in my other tower and it worked. i got into my bios so then... i took it apart and put it back in my new tower and i get the same message failed system cpu test it seemed if i wiggled it it posted but if i wiggled it anymore i lost it now it isn't doing anything i don't know if it is my board or my cpu can anyone give me any insight?
if it ain't broke..... it will be
