CPU and Mobo probably do work together, might be a build problem though as you say. Just thought: Is it set up to the right CPU in the bios? If it aint it muight be why. Checked the pins for damage as well?

Ooh dear. You may have killed the power supply AND completely ****ed the H/D. Bad move, you can get away with plugging the likes of fan's and cathode's in, but not anything like that. get a new PSU, and let's hope that all that has been killed.

Yeah, bitch of a probelm. First off, is windoo's set to turn on when the mouse moves? sometime tension in the mouse cable can change over time, and it'll move enough to register and turn on. Especially infa-red ones. Also, sometimes a power fluctuation. Get a surge protector, although it...

I only need 'em when looking over long distances, short sighted. Like the back of our extra-long physics class, but i've left school now. Yay, etc.

Guess this goes in here, but here goes anyway. Anyway, having my PC now built and done, i turned it on first time, fingers crossed. Came up telling me it can boot of the floppy disk, so i opened up the bios to change it to boot off the Hard Disk. Anyway, having done that, i checked the other...

If your setting the XP as a slave, win 98 won't recognise it as it's NTFS, i belive. So your a bit ****ed unless you want to upgrade to XP, and if im right, and the convert tool to change FAT32 to NTFS just buggers your H/D. Don't use it. I did, and i had to pay to get the data retreived.

Depends how much heat you intend to generate. For heavy overclocking, as many as possible, about 4's the usual. As said obove, 2-3 for an average build. Im running two in my gaming machine, on 7 volts with fan speed controller, noly turn them up when the heats gets too high, noisy buggers they are.

Thanks, ill run that when it's built.

Ahoy, new round here, and hi to all. Just started building me a computer, first time, and i would like to identify my motherboard, and i don't have a clue what it is. It is a Socket A (or 462 or near, as it says) and came with a Duron 1100Mhz. On the board itself is printed 3902A568, next to...
