Abit KT7-RAID Problems.. <grr>

[zerogear]

I have:
KT7-RAID
1 GHz CPU using Alpha PAL6035 w/ Arctic Silver
Addtronics 6890A Case (300W Addtronics Power Supply)
Hercules 3D Prophet II GTS 64MB (Using current reference drivers)
SoundBlaster Live! Platinum 5.1
3Com NIC Card
384MB PC-133 RAM
Samsung SyncMaster 900NF

------------------------
This is my problem, when I shut down the computer, every so often (randomly) it just simply doesn't turn on for about 5 minutes, and I have tried various ways to get it on... unplugging the power, resetting.. front power switch, main power supply switch, turn off electricity overall, Nothing works.. after about 5-10 minute passes it suddenly works again. What is this problem, faulty Mobo? -- I checked all the connection, power, switch connection.. everything in place.. This is really starting to annoy me

Also I have another problem which surfaced w/ the new motherboard, I used to have an Intel mobo, and the same monitor. Now that I've installed this Video Card onto the mobo, it's starting to give me error craps on starting windows, as it doesn't display anything besides the red sign that says: SYNC OUT OF RANGE. What does that mean?


ARGH -- I've exausted every possible option.. anyone help before I call up abit and addtronics and get an RMA!!!

Thanks in Advance

How did you switch motherboards? Fresh install of windows, registry hack to eliminate all hardware to redetect, or simply put it in and hope for the best? It sounds like the later. If so, clear out all the hardware from the registry and reinstall all of the drivers.
