Okay, I just bought a motherboard (havn't received it yet) but supposedly if it has the oldest version of the BIOS it won't support my AMD Sempron 3100+ (Socket 754) and will only support it if I upgrade the BIOS. Now my question is, would I be able to put the BIOS chip from the new motherboard...

sorry for double post

Oh, and when I bought the motherboard who knows how many years ago, the box said Machspeed, ect. ect., and on the motherboard itself it's labeled Rev 1.0.

Yeah, thanks for clearing that up. Once I receive http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISA...260138585167&rd=1&rd=1 I'll post back.

Yeah, I had started with defaults. The motherboard I linked also is not the same exact one I have, the one I have I can't find anywhere. It's a Machspeed S755MAX Rev. 1

The auto was 1.5, but that was before I learnt that the voltage had to be 0.8 not 1.8. And it seems I have AGP 2.0 anyways so once I get that motherboard all should be fine I hope?

Here's that picture of the different AGP slot types, I have the 2.0 Uni one. http://www.zendurl.com/j/jordan///agp.JPG

Also, I just found this. http://www.pcmall.com/pcmall/s...064%20754-Motherboards It says that my current motherboard support 1.5v only and the guy that sold the GPU said it required 0.8. I'll see if I can find a manual for the EVGA GeForce 7800 GS OC

Alright, but it should at least have enough power to boot into POST? I was reading an EVGA manual and came across pictures of different AGP slots, 1.0/2.0/and 3.0 Well, my slot does not have the 3.0 notch in it, it has none. So I'm guessing I do indeed have a 2.0 Universal and not a 3.0. I mean...

My PSU has 25A on the 12v rail though.

I believe my motherboard isn't 3.0 compatible. So I'm going to get this http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISA...260138138913&rd=1&rd=1

It seems the motherboard needs to have 0.8? And mine doesn't? Any suggestions guys...

Alright, I contacted the seller and he said that supposedly the video card I bought (EVGA GeForce 7800 GS OC 256mb AGP) requires 0.8v and I found out that my motherboard only has 1.5 to 1.8. Would this be the reason my videocard refuses to boot? I don't want to buy a new motherboard (very...

I just recently bought a 7800 GS OC AGP and now my system won't boot. For my motherboard I have a MachSpeed (Same as Jetway it seems?) S755MAX http://www.motherboard.cz/mb/jetway/S755MAX.htm http://www0.shopping.com/xPF-M...hlon-64Bit-Motherboard For my PSU I have a POWMAX 400w Max...

I can tell the difference between a computer with 1gb of ram and 2gb of ram, it's a huge difference. Also I would recommend getting motherboard with DDR2 instead of the normal DDR ram. It runs smoother and theres less chance of any lockups.
