A few day's ago I put together a new computer for my sister and when it power's up it wont post or no video will show up on it. If anyone knows some stuff that could be causing this the help would be greatly appreciated.


SPECS:
asus a8v deluxe socket 939
amd athlon64 3000+ socket 939 (Venice Core)
1gb (512mb X 2) geil dual channel kit pc3200
nvidia 6200 agp video card

let me know if you need more specs

Thank You.
 
I made up a list with quite a few things to check, it's the top link on this page.

First guess from the list: your mobo has a BIOS that doesn't support Venice-core A64's. From Asus's info it appears you need BIOS revision 1011 or later to get it to POST. Look at your mobo's BIOS chip (location) and is there a sticker on it with a 10xx number?

If that is ok, check the other stuff and see if it's all good.
