Darkwolfind Posted September 6, 2005 Posted September 6, 2005 Came home from work today and booted the ol puter up. Computer wouldnt post. The diagnostic lights do its little coutdown 4-3-2-1 but on the last one stays lit up and stops at where it shows the post screen but only the first part of it. Ive tried most everything including reseting the bios and im stumped. Tried almost new everything, ram, cpu, HDD, video cards etc and everything works up untill the the screen shows the first part of the POST screen.

Dynomutt Posted September 6, 2005 Posted September 6, 2005 if it gets down to 1 light then it has POSTed if it goes to no lights then the board beleives the OS is loading  you should be able to enter the BIOS and load optimised defaults even with 1 Red LED,  EDT your quite well OC'd there can you post your Genie BIOS and DRAM config settings as these will help peeps to help you  Have you tried Stock?

Dynomutt Posted September 6, 2005 Posted September 6, 2005 so it does not diplay any of your drives (they probably not being detected check jumpers on IDE drives if correct, disconnect drives and try booting to memtest, if this works then add drives 1 @ a time till you have problem again Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
