OK now my computer is really messed up, so I ordered a dell. But I still want to get this one working properly. I can get it to boot up fine once, then if I shut it down and try to reboot it it will not do anything, no picture is sent to the monitor and it doesnt try to boot up. However if I pull the power cord out for a little bit and then plug it back in it boots up fine. WHY????? I am soo confused, also my secondary IDE channel seems to be not working.

Board: Abit KT7-Raid
Processor: 1.0 GHz AMD
Raid setup, 2 HD, and 2 CDRW's that the computer does not see.
Gforce2 Ultra Video Card
TV Tuner
Soundblaster Live Value, Modem, NIC....
