Yea it's looking like a floppy problem.. I must have it plugged up wrong. I have to unplug the floppy power to get it to turn on.. Just doing some clicking thing and not powering up.. I'm able to get the cd-rom to come up now as slave under the hard drive. But then again I thought I had the...
Hi!
I'm having a problem getting my new 8RDA+ mb seeing my hard drive, cd-rom and cd-rw drives. I took these drives out of a working system just a few mins before so I know it's not the drives. The problem I'm having is that during POST it's taking 2 or more minutes to detect any of the...
Bluemax, sorry for my horrible spellling!! :-( I hope this didn't ruin your web browsing experience! :-)
Thanks all for the suggestions! I'm currently looking at a 1ghz duron from Newegg.com for $46.00 (shipping included).

My gamming system is a Epox KT266A with 512mb PC2100 so it would be able to support the XP. But I don't want to invest anymore for the server system so I'll probably get something that has a 200mhz FSB and not get the XP.
Thanks guys!!
I'm trying to decide on which processor I should use for a gamming SERVER system. I have a K7S5A Mobo, 256mb PC100 RAM, Kyro II 64mb Video for it. I know that most of the time, systems that you host games (dedicated) on don't need need to be top of the line to run good as a server. I have a...
Either one of those mobo's will be fine and from what I've read about your heatsink, it will be good too.. But one thing you need to consider is to make sure that you get a powersupply that can handle the AMD processor. I recommend you going to AMD's website and looking at 'approved' PS's and...
<< lets not forget that using onboard sound also uses up cpu speed. Some boards can use as much as 100mhz to run the onboard sound also. >>
Damn, I didn't realiize that the onboard sound eats up so much cpu. Are you refering to the AC97' sound? I've been having inconsistent breaking up on...
Oppss messed up.. Ok, how can you flash the bios in win2k? I've tried to and I get an error saying that not in true dosshell. Can anyone help??
Thanks!!!
You need to try different things. Make sure though that the powersupply is still working correctly for you. Even though many 250's will work for Athlon's, you may not be getting enough juice. I had the same problem you are having and the only thing I was able to do to fix it was to buy a...
Wow this is amazing!!! I had the same problem with my K7S5A/ 1.4ghz Athlon, I mean EXACTLY the same thing!! I would get power to everything: fans, hd, floppy,cd-rom, but nothing would happen for the bios to boot up.. I thought I might even have had a electrical short with a screw that...
Well I loaded the 27.10 drivers and still same problem so i said "F*** it" and reformated and reloaded (it's just my gamming system anyway) and it seems to work great now. Not one lockup or crash. I ran the game at 800x600 with 32bit color and details set on medium I think.. I'll try to run...
