Hi,
I need some help. I replaced the motherboard with a good used one I bought on ebay. It booted to the BIOS setup ok. I made all the necessary changes then saved and exit. It showed the Dell boot screen, then I heard the HD read for a half-second then nothing, it just hangs there with a black screen. It's a SATA and it's the only HDD in the computer. I'm pretty sure I have the BIOS setup correct. I checked the SATA connection and it's fine. The OS is Win XP.
Is the MB Bad? or what else might it be?
Thanks
