I installed my own Abit KT7 mobo with a 800mhz AMD chip about a year ago and everything on it seems to be working just right, with the exception of some minor USB problems, however, even when i go into BIOS and change the book order to CD-ROM 1st it still WILL NOT boot from my CD-ROM it goes...

OK I recently (2 weeks ago) installed a new Abit KT7 with Athlon 750 cpu, using my old Western Digital 3gig hard drive, 128megs RAM, 8megs VRAM Matrox Millenium video card. I'm running on Win98 and so far my only problem is that the computer would not recognize my USB ports and now on top of...

I just installed a new ABIT KT7 board with an Athlon 750, 128megs dram, and a new Matrox Millenium G200 8megs video ram. Its only been about 8 hours that everything has been up and running just fine when all of a sudden i get black vertical lines across my screen and the whole thing just hangs...

Actually, scratch the problem above, i figured out the CMOS just needed to be reset, but now i still have the problem with the disk not booting, and i even changed the settings in the SoftMenu even a boot disk wont take me anywhere, sorry but what now??

it seems like the troubles never stop...I tried to get it to detect my harddrive but it wouldn't save those settings although it did show up, and then i hit the Load FailSafe Defaults option and the screen just went blank, nothing came and on top of that i couldn't shut the computer off, i had...

OK, everything works fine now, i just replaced the memory into another dimm slot, but now it says DISK BOOT FAILURE, INSERT SYSTEM DISK AND PRESS ENTER...i dont know if its just not reading my hard disk or what, and i tried intserting the CD that came with my KT7 board and it doesn't read...

Thanks a lot, but just clarifying one thing. Should i bend the paper clip and stick one end of it in the green connector of the ATX plug and the other end to any black connector and is there a picture of this somewhere on the net that i can go by maybe? Thanks again.

Can someone help me with this power supply problem i have? I just bought a new 250Watt ATX case and hooked it up to an ABIT KT7 board with a 750 Athlon cpu...well after hooking in the ATX power cable into the board and the appropriate Power SW wire into the other side of the board which goes to...

This problem seems to be very odd to me, I just recently bought an ABIT KT7 board and i noticed in the center of the cpu socket there is a small prong sticking out with a blue top thats just about one centimeter above the cpu socket platform, disabling me from inserting the Athlon cpu, now...
