I can't get the 'new' mobo to post.
The PSU I had wasn't any good so I ordered one from Newegg.
Got it yesterday, hooked everything up, no post, no boot, no joy.
I tried 3 different CPU's 9 different sticks of ram and 2 different video cards.
It's funny, the leds come on & the CPU fan spins but nobody's home.

Anyone else have a Nforce2 mobo they would like to send me?

Got what I needed, Thanks!


Bulged & oozing caps on the mobo - it was never overclocked (not possible with this board).
It was running an Athlon 2400, cpu seems fine & mem & everything else all good.
I just want to replace with another nforce2 mobo to avoid reinstalling Winblows.
Preferably one that will allow some OC and does not have onboard video.
I have numerous Athlons I could put in it so I would just see which one would OC best.

If you have an nforce2 mobo just laying about with nothing to do just PM or email me or post here. I'm willing to pay a bit for it & of course I'll cover shipping. Lets keep these mobos crunching!

Oh, it was also my wifes PC. She's traumatized so if I can get this fixed quickly it will really help ;)

Thanks.

I also have 2 Abit NF7-S mobos I don't use anymore. I need to stop being lazy and put us a FS/trade tread for the TeAm.

I feel I must once more announce that, "I am not a MOD."

:laugh:

"I am not now, nor have I ever been, nor would I ever want to be... a mod"

Cool :)

Hey Wiz ,when I pulled out my Asus nfrc2 mbrd for the upgrade to C2d I found 1 cap on that had bulged too :( ,that explains why the once stable for years overclock of 2.5GHz wasn't anymore! ,also means I can't sell it for anything really :(
Still my new rig rocks:D
