    New PC wont POST

    Ahh, Im kinda embarrassed. I tried a 420w PSU, and it worked. Then for some reason, I looked at the little red voltage switch, and saw that it was set wrong on the 200w PSU the whole time. Oops. I would just stick the 420 in, but the case is small, and the 420 is about twice as big as the 200...

    New PC wont POST

    Okay, I read that troubleshooting rtf, and the possibilities are something broken, something isn't configured right, or the psu is too weak. Im pretty sure nothing is broken, since I bought everything online, and dont want to ship it. I just read the manual, and I dont see any configuration...

    New PC wont POST

    Both power connectors are plugged in. However, my PSU has a 20-pin connector, but the board has a 24-pin. I plugged the 20 into the 24, with 4 pins open. This is okay, right?

    There is onboard video, but I also tried a couple of video cards (that I know work). I cant test any of it on another computer, because I dont have any other mobos or CPUs that are LGA775, or RAM that is DDRII SDRAM.

    New PC wont POST

    Im making a HTPC, and I have a microATX mobo. The mobo, ram, and CPU are all new, and when I put them all together, it wont even POST. It is an MSI PM8PM-V and intel Celeron D 331. When I push the power button, the fans spin, but nothing else happens. What could be wrong?

    Computer Boot Problems

    Well, it wont even POST. I tried without any RAM at all (should give a beep code that theres no RAM, yea?), and with RAM that I know works. All 3 computers don't work, so I don't think its the power supply. 1 of the PSUs is just 6 months old. Windows is only on the gaming PC, which is actually...

    Computer Boot Problems

    I have 4 computers 1 laptop, 1 gaming, 1 desktop, and 1 that will be a Linux PVR. All of the, except the laptop, had broken motherboards, or so I thought. They would turn on, fans on, but no POST beep, or anything on the monitor. I bought motherboards for all of them (and upgraded the video...
