    So my computer won't start up anymore

    i've switched out the ram in the comp before with no problems. this time when i switched out the ram i can't get it to start up again. since the cmos thing didn't work, maybe the motherboard is kaput....the case was open when i saw it, and i kept asking my brother what he did to it. he insists...

    So my computer won't start up anymore

    yeah, that was the first thing i tried. i should have mentioned it before. i personally think my brother did something to it, as he's the one who found it in this condition--but he swears all he did was try to turn it on, and, nothing. i tried it again for good measure, but it still didn't...

    So my computer won't start up anymore

    Computer won't power up after installing DVD-RW drive

    thanks yall, the switching the cable select jumper did the trick. to think the best buy "geeks" could only come up with me needing a "customization" which would have cost me $80.

    Computer won't power up after installing DVD-RW drive

    Computer won't power up after installing DVD-RW drive

    hey, thanks for the response. no, there aren't any disks in the drive when i boot the comp. i'm not sure if i got through to the bios screen, it didn't say bios, just compaq setup menu. i connected the new drive with the same cable used for the old one, i basically just swapped the drives...
