Hi all. I can't really figure this out- I've tried google groups and other areas and I can't find why it doesen't work.
Problem:
Pc stopped working- tried to boot and it would just turn on and wouldn't send any signal to monitor. So, bought a new chip and still does the same thing- turns on, fans turn on, kybd lights up- but no signal to monitor using ISA/ PCI/ AGP cards.
Specs: Abit kT7-RAID, Crucial Ram, AMD Thunderbird 1.1ghz 100/200 fsb .
About the cpu: Just bought it. Things on the chip:
A1100AMS3B
ASHA D130UPJW
1999 AMD
I'm hoping it isn't my motherboard- there is a possibility that the mobo got fried.
I have heard a couple issues such as:
---You need a very good power supply for 1.3 and 1.4ghz cpus (such as 430 Watt)- and thus I am thinking I need something better than my 300W Antec Power Supply?
---There is a short on the motherboard, so you need to use rubber washers behind the mounting brackets. I removed the mobo from the case and placed it on a plastic mount and I get the same results.
---Possibly this CPU isn't compatible with my mobo? The KT7-RAID supports Socket A 200fsb Cpu chips, which is what this one is.
---My last idea is this: The last CPU I was using in my system was a Duron 600 that was multiplier unlocked, which I ran at 900mhz, overclocked. Perhaps I need to unlock my new chip because the multiplier is locked?
I'd be really stoked if you'd post any answers. Thanks!
