Thanks for all the replies guys. :) Looks like ill go for it. Try to post benches when i do.

What are my chances of getting this celeron running at 133fsb? I have an 700mhz PIII @933 right now and im looking to upgrade to this processor IF and ONLY if i can get at 133fsb. It must be at 133 fsb b/c i am using an Asus Tusl2 and i cant divide the pci clock.. and i have components that...

Hmm, i hate to say it but i think im out of ideas. All the procedures i know of to fix a pc that won't even POST have been described in this thread and you've done them all. I cant believe it wont even POST. At this point i would take everything out of the pc except the essentials. I would...

Yep, if thats the 5 connectors you got DC SW is definitely it. To answer your other questions about the thermal grease and other issues they really arent a problem and even if they were they dont explain the symptoms you are having. What about that black switch on the back of your Power Supply...

The orange light being on is good. That means your motherboard is getting power from the Power Supply Unit. When you press the power button on your case the Green light should come on, not the red one. The red light should be connected to the reset button and should only come on when you press...

K, i download the manual for you motherboard from abit. Before you try to turn on your MB i believe the orange light "D14" should be lit up if your MB is getting power b/c this indicates standby mode. If like you said you are trying to turn on your pc and the red light is coming on "D17" then i...

Just to be on the safe side let me give you some info on the CMOS for safety reasons. It is usually left best alone b/c it stores the basic info for the bios. You should really only discharge it, by moving the jumper over pins 2 and 3, when you flash the bios. IE when you upgrade your BIOS. Plz...

On picture 15 you posted it shows a black switch with a "-" and an "o" on it on the back of the PSU. Im not sure what that switch is but i would venture that the posistion it is in in that picture, "-" is off and "o" would be on. But you said you were getting power to the MB right? IE the LED...

Hi. The DC SW and Power Led connectors must be turned the right way. Like a hot wire/neutral wire.. colored is usually hot.. white or black neutral. Its also kinda like how the 1pin must be plugged in the right way on a hard drive. So if you are getting power to the MB and not being able to...

Hi. I need to upgrade my hard drive cuz its only 8GB, but i would like to wait if Serial ATA drives will start appearing soon. Anyone know when they might appear on the market? Thx. Also, if you have any info on when Maxtor or Western Digital might be releasing their next generationg hard...

Thanks for the replay Richard. With some help from alt.comp.periphs.mainboard.abit, i inspected my capacitors on my mainboard and 5 of them are bad. This seems to be a know problem with some abit boards and that is what is causing the instability, not the Crucial meemory.

My SA6R has four caps with yellow/brown residue on the tops, and a 5th is as round as a basketball on top when the others are flat. From discussing this on alt.comp.periphs.mainboard.abit. i have been told that this is likely causing the instability on my system.. ie system crashes.. failure to...

Ya, im sure its cas 2. It's part #CT32M64S4D7E. I can't lower it to 2.5 on this board, only 3. It runs quite stable when set at 3-3-3 7/9. How powerful is your power supply FatBelly? Someone suggested that my power supply might be causing these problems. I have an Antec PP253X 250W case. Is...

I have Crucial memory in my Abit SA6R and im starting to get system crashes and failures to POST. From what i gather most ppl don't think Crucial runs very well in ths MB. So, can any of you out there recommend some memory that runs rock soliid at 133mhz and 2-2-2. Also, if you have experienced...
