Panhead, Just a thought. The Mitsumi floppy I installed was the REVERSE for pin 1 compared to all the other devices. In this case, I noticed a small etching above the connector, and upon closer examination it was a "1" and it was on the left side! I reversed my floppy cable so that...

Tried multiple times reseating the video card - it is fully seated in the AGP slot. The T-bird CPU went into the Socket A mount perfectly. The HSF was installed correctly with Artic Silver II. Thanx for the reply!

Hawkeye - Thanx for the input. The KA266 mobo has a jumper "CPU FSB & Memory Speed Setting" which is set for "CPU 100/100 MHz". The manual states that the KA266 only supports synchronous CPU & Memory speed, and thus this should set the system to 200 FSB and with the...

Shippy - thanx for the ideas. I unplugged everything, reset the cmos, but still nothing. When I hit the power up button, my monitor does get something (power signal?) because it makes its usual wake up from sleep/save mode noise, but then the power save window is shown with the error message...

Clay, I just posted the same issue - put my KA266 system together last night and I get power to everything but nothing on my monitor. Check your power save menu on the monitor and see if it says No Video Signal? I have a Leadtek GTS 32M DDR video board. Something in the air last night????? Let...

Just put together a system last night consisting of an AMD 1.2G/266FSB on an Iwill KA266 mobo with 128M PC1600, Maxtor 40.9G ATA100/7200, Mitsumi 1.44 floppy, Aopen 16x DVD ROM, and Leadtek Nvidia2-GTS 32M DDR video driver all in an Inwin 300W case. On power up, nothing on the monitor (17&quot...

Just got an Iwill KA266 with a 1.2G/266FSB T-bird and 128M PC1600 RAM. What's your best tweaked BIOS settings? Thanx, David

With 2 settings for the FSB (100/133), and 2 settings for the RAM (100/133), this gives me 4 possible combinations. What's optimal (base setup - I will then start to overclock each area, and I'll take any procedural recommendations for this also)? Since I have PC1600 (waiting for PC2100 to...

Hi - building my first PC. I got my early Christmas presents today from FedEx including an Iwill KA266 DDR mobo and a AMD 1.2G 266FSB CPU and 128M of PC1600 from Crucial. My first question is what are the correct bus settings? Do I need to set the FSB to 200 in order to work correctly with the...
