I have a BD7 Raid motherboard.

It was working OK in a Desktop case using P4-1.6GHz Intel Pentium,
and one stick of 512MB SDRAM.

I took the Motherboard out of the desktop case and installed it to a MidTower case (Compugeek Silver, 400W PowerMax power supply certified for P4),

I did not even take out the CPU and the Memory during the transfer.

After installing and connecting to the new case the motherboard will not boot. It will start the boot process and will abort and switches it self Off when the LEDs show 03

I tried without any peripheral, With Video and keyboard only and with all the peripheral. Always the same it will abort at 03.

TIA.

"Initial Superio_Early_Init Switch" is what the 03 stands for. I have no clue what that means in English. Any beeps or anything?

Thanks for responding.

I saw the "strange" terminology, have no clue what it means.

No beeps, the LED system suppose to replace the beeps.
