| 568605 | 2007-07-13 01:37:00 | Pacifer, sorry, I should have told you to remove the power plug when you remove the CMOS battery! Thanks Sol tried that too, Getting a return number now, so its going back for replacement. I am starting to wonder if spending thousands on a new rig was such a good idea. Man those new Intel fans suck to attach to the motherboard :lol: |

| 568606 | 2007-07-13 01:40:00 | The DVD drive won't read the disk, the PC does essentially nothing, the fans, the CPU fan and the DVD start for a few seconds, thats it. it was running fine all morning, has the OS installed fine. Till I decided to update the bios to clear the CPU error on start up. And the board does support this CPU you just need to flash the bios to clear the Start up error. I would check and see if its overheating then. Putting the cd in should do something. Even if its dead. |

| 568607 | 2007-07-13 01:46:00 | No way it can be overheating, the room is cold and there is enough fans cooling, its been off for an hour, it still won't start | Pacifier (2821) | ||

| 568609 | 2007-07-13 02:15:00 | Speed....I spent 43+ years in auto repairs...and I know I made a lot of mistakes that stick in my memory...unfortunately mechanics cannot bury their mistakes like doctors, ours come back on tow trucks. You sound like you might have a few skeletons in the old closet too.. I particularly love your insights...but I gotta ask: "Have you been there, done that" too like me? You catching and saying this: The connection to the ATX 12V Power connector.. Coz it wont go if this isnt plugged into this connector. __________________ .............really makes me smile...thanks for the tickle....:thumbs: |

You catching and saying this: .............really makes me smile...thanks for the tickle....:thumbs: lol. Well not yet, I havent / or didnt forget to plug this connector in. Maybe, if and when I make up another PC, I will. |
