I just built a system with the amd 1600xp chip and the epox 8KHA+ motherboard. Everything seems to be working fine, except I am getting an FF post code. I am using all the default settings for the Bios except I turned off the built in sound card. I also changed the jumper setting to 133 Mhz, I think I was supposed to do this. I have 258MB Crucial pc2100 memory, Aureal Gamer sound card, Hercules Prophet video card, Wester Digital 80GB harddrive, ethernet card, RW cd drive and I am using windows xp. I installed the updated bios with the cd that came with the motherboard. Everything appears to be working fine, except for the FF Code and my LED lights on my antec case dont appear to be working. Any ideas? I think I have the case cords attached correctly, but the LED lights dont work. Should I even worry about the FF code if everything appears to be working?

Thanks for any help.

If you have no lights on your case, then try switching around the Power LED and HDD LED cables...what I mean is face the cables the other way on the posts. I'm also guessing that you did not have good flash of your bios...try reflashing it with the bios from EPOX's site
