Brand new board (MSI neo4 platinum) and i was initially getting some weird readings from the D-Bracket. I dont get any "system on" LEDs, rather it starts at "decompressing BIOS..." then on to "early chipset init...", "memory check," THEN to "decompressing BIOS" again. At this point it powers down.
I then removed manual jumper, unplugged power, removed battery, and cleared CMOS. As soon as i add power back (manual jumper removed still) it powers up. Is this "normal" behavior? Also, when i power up i boot properly and post until the "initializing floppy" prompt. This is a minimal install so theres no floppy or case. Just mobo, ram, cpu, video. Should i just hook up the floppy and see if i can configure and save the BIOS? Or what?
[edit]Nevermind. Stupid jumper ... er, stupid builder?
