Thanks for all of the replies. I am going to read them all again. I was very very carefully when I put the computer together and I even used a magnifing glass to make sure everything was set properly and I know the setting was for jumper free (but I will re-check). I am going to download the...

Thanks for all your help. I giving up for tonight but will start again tomorrow night. A dumb newbie question. What does FSB stand for. I want to make sure I am changing the correct setting. I have been changing the CPU Clock Multiplier and the CPU Frequency number. I hope that the...

I tried changing the setting to 14 and left the cpu setting at 100 and it still would not boot properly. Thanks

Thanks for your comments. Before I even open the box I will take it back. Thanks again

Micro Center has this Video card for $109.00 and after the rebate, the card costs $59.95. I am a Newbie building my first computer. This card is a nvidia GeForce2 high performance 256-Bit 3D/20 Video Accelerator. Would I better off just spending the extra money and get a Radeon Video card or...

Will a Athlon XP 1600 work in a Asus A7V133 KT133A Socket A Motherboard. The Assus website says they have a bios download that supports XP processors. I know it will support Durons CPUs and the Athlon Thunderbird up to 1.1 mhz. Any comments would be appreciated.
