Just put together a athlon65 3200+ and when it posts it says no keyboard detected. I've tried 2 different keyboards and both dont work. In the manual it says theres a polyfuse that controls the keyboard/mouse controllers and that if current hits it wrong it will blow and then heal itself later.

Well I think i had a power cable hooked up wrong at first but now everything detects but keyboard. Im using a chaintech nforce socket 754 mb.
 
silly question, but just to be sure...

You are plugging the keyboard into the purple PS/2 port, right? The green one is for the mouse, the purple for the keyboard.
 
if its a ps/2 keyboard your converter might be bad the ps/2 > usb stub thing, try another one, if its usb same with your usb > ps/2
 
fixed keyboard it was a jumper. Now it was booting to my windows xp cd and it just locked up so i rebooted it started to boot to the cd then it froze rebooted again now it wont post and it just beeps long beeps 1 at a time
 
please if anyone has any advice im sooo stressed out it wont post at all just beeps i took the heatsink off checked the cpu unplugged the ram im so scared i spent alot of money on this
 
well it looks like the paste got everywhere im screwed i ruined a new athlon 3200+ 64 and a chaintech motherboard probably voided the warrenty i am officially depressed broke and tired 4 hours trying to fix
 
Did you try reading a guide on how to do this before you started? Or reading.... anything?

I've learned that it's usually better to ask these kinds of questions before you make an attempt.

Go to bed. Worry about it tomorrow, working on it tired and angry will get you nowhere.

Besides, more people will be around to help you tomorrow.

When you say the paste got everywhere, what do you mean? Is it in your AGP port?
 
if paste is on your cpu and mobo. try to clean it off with some alcohol and make sure you get everything off. theres a slight chance it might work.
 
Constant beeps suggests RAM to me. I took the RAM outta my machine and it just beeped.

Have you looked at your motherboard manual for beep codes? They usually indicate the problme, or on the Chaintech website?
