Hello.
My Duron 600 on an Asus A7V has started to behave odd on startup. I have connected the L1 bridges with a pencil and was running the CPU at 8.0 * 100 using the core voltage on 1.65V. This worked fine for two months, now this is what happens: When the power is turned on to the ATX supply the fans starts and stays on, the monitor report "no cable connected" and starts to show test screens. When pressing restart the fans die but the monitor stays on. Now pressing start button causes the system to start but the monitor goes off. Pressing restart one more time causes the monitor to go on and the system starts properly and runs without a problem.
I went down to default core voltage and multiplier at 6.0 and the problem disappeared. I tried to raise the multiplier, 6.5 went alright but at 7.0 the fans started and did not go off, the monitor started and the system speaker started to bip repeatedly - a low note followed by a high. Raising the core voltage at this point made the system behave as described above again.
My guess right now is of course the power supply which is only a 235W one, but since the system run alright and indeed runs fine after the startup problem I thought I'd toss the ball to you guys. Any ideas?
