    No boot

    Yeah-that's the next step-I like to use plastic over cardboard-hehe, not the conducting plastic that the MB comes in. Just a huge pain in the butt to get it all out of the case after all the cables have been arranged so nicely :P Will let ya know what happens. At least the Asus board has...

    No boot

    OK-I have: Replaced and switched around RAM Replaced video card with different card Reseated all HD power & connection cables Running Thermaltake PurePower 480 watt PS, no problems with it. Can hear HDs spinning up at power-on Only thing I haven't done yet is replace the processor...

    No boot

    OK-I briefly tried reseating the RAM and HD connectors already, but the system should boot into BIOS without HDs, right? I'll try pulling a stick of RAM and trying that-attempted to run Memtestx86 from a floppy at boot, didn't run. I think the fact that I am not getting into BIOS and no beeps...

    No boot

    PSU is OK-fans are on-all case fans & CPU fans. Case lights on. HD's seem to be spinning up. No BIOS beep at all. BIOS does not seem to be loading.

    No boot

    Hi- Running an Asus P4P800 MB with P4 3.2, ran fine last night. Turned this on this AM, no boot, no BIOS screen-nothing. Attempted to boot from WinXP disc-no luck, from Asus installation disc-nothing. I reset the CMOS, nothing. Ideas? What next? Help!

    Help-PCI.SYS corrupted?

    Wow-fast reply! Thanks. OK-I start from XP CD, now the system starts setup, but goes to a blue screen saying "The file pci.sys is corrupted. Press any key to continue." I press a key and it reboots to the same screen. Can't seem to start repair. Next??

    Help-PCI.SYS corrupted?

    Hi- Got up today, and my system with XP Pro starts up, goes through POST, the XP splash screen shows up then it loops through boot sequence again and again. I tried to enter Safe mode, same result. Also tried XP disc-/fixboot and /chkdsk, chkdsk found a few errors and otherwise scanned OK...

    Catalyst not running

    OK-I just dropped it back to the ATI control panel instead of Catalyst Control Center, works fine. I never did figure out what was going on with the Catalyst Control Center. I have another system with same OS, same NIS, Ad-Aware, Spy Sweeper and firewall settings on which it works fine...

    Catalyst not running

    hmmm-no, no error messages. I do have Ad-Aware and NIS running, tried turning off but no help. The advanced button in display properties doesn't work, either. Catalyst Control Center button is there, just won't open. I have the same things running on my other system, though, and it works there.

    Which LCD should i buy for gaming?

    Interesting-these both look nice, great prices-but I can't seem to locate the response time anywhere in the 2001 info. Am I just missing it, or did they hide it somewhere? Thanks
