I've run memtest86, and come to the conclusion that one of the RAM-sticks is faulty. So I'll change it. Thanks for all the help everyone!

As I went to bed I haven't had the chance to test. But at least it works with one stick. I'll try some more today!

Good news! I did some more testing, pulled out each RAM-stick! I'll try some more and see if the stick is broken, or if it's something else. Is it possible that there's not enough current to power two sticks? Thanks for all the help from everyone!

Gravity: I think I have some sneak-version, since there's at least only one bios-chip on the mobo. mechbgon: Thanks for the tip, I'll try the wait and see approach. I dunno if the PSU is the issue, since it worked for a day and a half, and has worked for quite a while with my old AMD system...

One thing though, if the BIOS is fried, should it still have output that "Unknown Flash Memory" thingie? .. I sincerely hope that there's no need for RMA... Any more ideas?

PSU: Chieftec, Model: HPC-340-201 I've hooked up the 12V connector. Unfortunately, I think this is the sneak-version of the 7N400, as it doesn't have DualBIOS. Also, it doesn't seem to output anything to the monitor any more. I've tried different gfx-cards, and still no picture. No luck on...

Doublepost .. sorry!

Hi, yesterday I assembled my newly bought GA-7N400 mobo, along with a Athlon XP 2500+ (Barton) CPU, and 2 x TwinMOS 512MB DDR2700 DIMMS. Everything went fine, I installed windows, installed new nForce and GeForce drivers. Today I formatted a new partition and copied some files over to the newly...

Hi, I've just bought a Leadtek Winfast A250LE (GeForce4 Ti4200 128MB). Does anyone know how much I can overclock it? Is it worth the performance? Since the card has a heatsink and a fan, is it risk-free?

Those are the games on the CDs in my package.

A1: Yes A2: No A3: No Idea

Hi folks, I'm about to buy a new system, based on an Athlon 1.4GHz (266 mhz FSB et al). The question is, which motherboard should I go for? So far, I've been planning on a MSI K7T266 PRO. I'm not into overclocking, just looking for a system with good stability and good (gaming) performance...
