Epox 8K7A
AMD XP 1600+
2 x 256 Crucial PC2100 DDR ram
Geforce4 Ti4200 (128MB)
60GB IBM HD + 60GB WD HD
My computer boots up unstable at 133, so I had to change it to 100. system isn't running at 1.4 ghz but at 1.03 or so. I tried to take out the ram and see if it will boot stable at 133 but no luck, tried to take out the network card since epox faqs page says that the netgear311 cards arent compatible, and mine is a 310, but still no luck. Could I be facing a bad cpu or a bad mb? I just got the mb replaced from the store bc the old one had problems with USB. i also tried setting the jumpers on the mb but no luck. The comp just freezes or shows a blank screen after the start up screen with all the system data. Don't even get to see WIndows Logo. I am also running on WINXP PRO SP1. ANy suggestions would be great , thanks.
I would check the specs of the power supply in the bios hardware monitor. 5v rail should be 4.9-5.05; 12v 11.7-12.1. Some boards are picky about power supplies.
I dunno about the brand came with my INWIN case, but it is 300 watts and it worked fine with another setup both intel and amd. The computer just died yesterday won't even boot up. So i'm gonna look into finding a new cpu and see if thats the problem. Thanks for all ur suggestions.
