Abit NF7-S and IDE/PS

[matheusber]

hail hail,

i got one nf7-s and got also troubles.

when i make a file copy, i got the mouse and sound and everything weird, something like slow :/ i run linux so no windows drivers would help

i also have a Power supply issue, i have a poor one XPC ( Leadership ), not so good one and the mb dont even starts, just make the north bridge cooler work and that red led not so bright. a friend of mine has a nf7-s rev 1.1 and when i used his PS mine didnt even turn ... just blink that red led when i connectec the PS cable and when disconnected ...

is this mb lost ? should i send it back ?

Hello,
You wrote "when i make a file copy, i got the mouse and sound and everything weird, something like slow :/ i run linux so no windows drivers would help"

I don't understand your question. But, have you installed all the chipset drivers? Or, updated to the latest?

What about the cpu fan? Does it come on?. If not, the mobo won't post or turn on. Make sure it's plugged in to the proper header on the mobo.

If the mobo is in the case, take it out. Lay it on cardboard, newspaper etc. This will help ensure it is not shorting against the case. Have only cpu (HSF), ram and vid card installed.
