First, specs.
AMD athlon 1800+ palamino core
ABIT KT7A-RAID
Generic CD-ROM
2 OLD Hardrives
1 floppy (know it works)
ATI 4mb vid card
SB LIVE!
10/100 nic card
Antec Solution Series Case
Problem number 1:
Finniky powersupply.
I have to hit the power button and flip the switch at the back constantly to try to get it to turn on. Haven't got it to boot with cd-rom, hardrives, and floppy connected yet. Mabye a lack of power, not sure. (My friend brought over another power supply so i am running the drives and fans off of that.
Problem number 2:
The led's on the mouse and keyboard don't come on.
I have an optical mouse and the little light doesn't come on and the "num lock" and other lights don't come on the keyboard. (Know they work)
Problem number 3:
CD-Rom drive won't open.
It is possible that it just plain doesn't work, but i have a molex connector on it from my friends power supply and the ide cable to my mobo if that makes a differance.
Problem number 4:
Nothing comes onto the screen at start up.
I don't hear any beeps, or see anything on the screen when i boot up the computer.
POSITIVE SIGNS!!!
1. The led on the network card lights up.
2. The cpu fan and case fan hooked up to the mobo turn on (when i get the power supply working)
I may have not included enough information, but just ask and i will do my best to tell you or take pictures of the computer.
Thanks for any help you can give!
Thanks
Paul
