Soooooooo, I am running win2k on a MSI6163pro
and I get the new Celeron2 566 thinking I will give it a try. Well I plug it in and Blank screen. So I take it out and replace it with the original Celeron 300a that was in it but it wont post. Next day I turn it on for fun and it posts no problem everythings back to normal, great.
THe next day I turn it on and it posts up to entering Windows and then goes black. Same result on repeated attempts. It will start up in safe mode but not normal. I then reload Win2k and choose "Repair" but still end up with the same black screen upon entering Windows.
(Here is where it get fun) So I format the hard drive and put Win98 back on and it all works. I then load Win2k and DOES THE EXACT SAME THING! Black screen upon entering Windows2k.
I keep thinking I have seen it all but am constantly amazed at this stuff. Anybody have any ideas at all? Thanks in advance.
