Boy am I pissed. This week I ordered a PIII 700e, Abit Slotket and 256 mg Crucial Ram Cas2 to but in my Abit BX6 R2. I have been looking forward to today to set it up. So I got everything set up and fired it up. Nothing but a blank screen!!!
I am figuring when you just get a black screen it is a video problem...am I right. I am thinking my motherboard my be toast. I had a similar probelm to this before. Sometimes I would boot the computer and get a black screen, or it would boot and would beep then stop, then beep then stop and so on.....I ended up resovling this problem by changing my ram and putting it in a different slot....I figured the slot was gone.
But now I am after trying everything. I have my old processor put back in, my old ram....just the way as it was this morning when it was working fine.....still just a black screen. I am buying a new motherboard this week.....but am I safe to assume that the motherboard is dead. I know it is not the video card too becuase I am using it right now in my girlfriends computer.
Can someone please help me before I take an axe to the works of it all!!!
Thanks.....
