*bump*
exchanged the mobo for another one. same one.
Same problem. Me and my friends tried everything. New PSU, new memory, new CPU, new IDE ribbons, new CD Drive. thought the case was shorting it out, so we took it out of the case. almost everything possible. At the end of giving up.
I...
I don't quite understand. I'm just trying to install windows through CD drive. What do I need to boot from the floppy? Sorry :(
anyway I am also trying to install a SATA hardrive also. I didn't bother to take a look at the computer last night, probably try and not be lazy tonight lol :(
thanks alot buddy.
I'll be sure to check all that. So lazy I don't even want to look at it when I get home lol :( ..
I think I'm just going to start from scratch and rebuild it again...I'm sure it's something stupid...really sure... I just hope it's not a defective mobo, someone reassure...
Well I built a budget machine for my friends dad.
ASrock K8NF6G-VSTA
amd socket 754 3000+
512mb generic ddr 400mhz
cheapo 480watt psu
The problem is, is that I can get into the BIOs and all, but I can't boot from CD. My friend's dad said he tried another CD drive and that didnt work...
they are suggesting no thermaltake PEW PEW!!, but I'll be a hypocrit because I use one too :(
I been lurking for awhile I think most of them support seasonic psus, I still have to experience one of those things lol
GRR WIRELESS! ..........
I'm using the WMP54G, it's good, I guess wireless sucks because of the fact that a 2.5ghz phone is sitting right next to my router...
GRR... WIRELESS!!!!!! hate it but i keep using it
if you look at the price for the current 3800+ X2's...it's an amazing deal... thats what i'm planning to do in the coming months
even if you don't need all that power, i say it's a good investment
but the death of 939 really wouldn't change my opinion, it's still great technology
CHEAP...
