Well I did find out what to do. There were eight 10-pin jumpers that had to be moved, then move jbat1 to clear CMOS, however, just like someone else I read on this forum, the board was dead after the jumper change. I switched everything back to original, and still no video output. The thing is, with the old memory I took out, they were SDRAM and were in the 168 pin slots, and the new DDR 1gb cards were 184 so they had to go in the seccond set of slots. Right now I am using my laptop until I can either figure it out or just pull the hard drive and get another system. This was a home made Frankenstein of a computer anyway, and was my first attempt at building one as a novice. It gave me 4 good years so it's no huge loss. I didn't pay for any of the parts anyway...lol. I do wish to take a class though so I can build and work on my own systems.
