HELP! PC won't even POST :-(

Thanks for the reply! Tried both DIMMs in both positions, separately. Still no beep when dimm is in, only "no-ram" beeps when no dimms are in. Maybe both dimms are fried? But I don't have a second ddr2 computer to test them.

HELP! PC won't even POST :-(

After working for more than a year with no problems, one day it died. No smoke, but no picture either. Tested the monitor - it's ok with another pc. Now I have bare mobo with cpu and hsf, connected to the psu. With no ram it spins the fan and beeps. With ram it doesn't beep, but it has no...

Alternative to Antec P150/Solo

I'd have liked to buy an Antec P150/Solo, but I can't afford it. What would you suggest I buy instead? Suppose I buy the version without the PSU, which PSU should I buy so it would be cheaper but still quiet? I live in Israel so price and availability are problematic. Thank you in advance.

Please help me build a PC

Boztech, It's good to know I'm not the only madman building a powerful non-gaming machine! Mobo: Personally I just don't trust ASUS as of late, looks like they've cut some corners with that board: http://www.newegg.com/Product/CustRatingReview.asp?Item=N82E16813131584 Video: ATI has...

Please help me build a PC

I'll read about them, then. Thanks for the heads up! I'm in a Tel-Aviv suburb. What is a good brand/model of value RAM for overclocking?

Please help me build a PC

My PC really needs a replacement (as it was built in June 2000 :-O), but I don't need a monster gaming rig and I don't want to spend too much, but I also don't want to buy crap. What it will be used for: - Mild, quiet, air-cooled overclocking. Quiet more important than speed, so not aiming...

FU mandatory enlistment.

I am a Sergeant First Class in the Israel Defense Forces. Israel has mandatory conscription, but since I was found unfit for combat duty (being an only child is enough, but I had health issues as well) I was assigned to the IT corps. I do .NET development and Oracle database design and...

Via Apollo Pro 133A and ATI Radeon 9000 incompatibility?

Both ASUS P3V4X and the Gigabyte R9000 (http://www.giga-byte.com/VGA/Products/Products_GV-R9000.htm, http://www.ati.com/support/faq/agpchart.html) are universal x2/x4 AGP 2.0, not keyed for either voltage. I've checked, because that was the first thing that came to mind. They should both be able...

Via Apollo Pro 133A and ATI Radeon 9000 incompatibility?

I've bought a new Gigabyte R9000 video card. Installed it into my old computer - doesn't work (no picture, if I boot with second (PCI) video card Sandra says AGP unpopulated though the Radeon is in). Tested it on a friend's computer with a i865 board - it's ok. My computer is currently set to...

cheap 2d solution needed

For some reason, the G550, although it's years old and not too feature full, is not very cheap around here. Are there any other options?

cheap 2d solution needed

My video card is dying (weird horizontal shadows appeared, they are caused by faulty hardware because they show up even at POST). I have stopped playing games over a year ago and am financially in a tight spot right now, so I'd like to get a cheap 2d card that supports 1152x864x32@100hz...
