Hello
--------------------------------------------------------------------
IC7-MAX3 Mobo - With latest BIOS update
1gig DUAL DDR400 RAM
FX5900 gfx
120 HDD
3.2ghz Prescott CPU ( Previous CPU = 2.8ghz P4 533FSB)
--------------------------------------------------------------------
When i installed my new Prescott CPU and power up the computer, nothing happens..the motherboard lights turn on and the fans spin, but the monitor stays in stand-by mode!!
When i reinstalled my old CPU, the system started up fine again!
I updated my BIOS to the lastes verion "18" and have resest the BIOS settings via the jumper switch on the motherboard. I have also used the Artic
silver thermal paste between the cpu and heatsink, and made sure the cpu is seated correctly with the heatsink and fan correctly over it!
Does anyone have any suggestions as to why my computer won't start up, or evan go into POST??
Thank you in advance
