dreiu Posted July 7, 2004 Posted July 7, 2004 Hey all, I just put my computer together, and it boots up into windows fine (XP SP1). The problem is that while it is on, all 4 LED's are staying lit up. I was just wondering if anyone could confirm this was normal. Thanks. EDIT: forgot which NIC is which.. NV is top one? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RGone Posted July 7, 2004 Posted July 7, 2004 :cool: Yes, if you would look in the manual at the check chart for the LED's you would notice the chart shows all 4 LEDS on when running is the code. Sometimes it really makes me wonder? Oh well, good luck! Sincerely, RGone... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

My fault for not looking. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RGone Posted July 7, 2004 Posted July 7, 2004 :nod: last one had the 4LED's of death you had no boot with that valleyofthe4ledsofdeath. That is the HUGE@ss difference. Hehehehehehehe. Fact I had my own walkthruthevalleyofthe4ledsofdeath myself this weekend and had to get her going again. Amen Bios savior and or spare bios chip and on the DFI-619 which I had found to be nearly indestructable> but you or I put some silly settings in the bios and it will kill even the DFI-619; of that I know the truth now. Hehehehehehehehe. Sincerely, RGone... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hehehehehehehehe. Sincerely, RGone... So you saved a board that had 4LED's of death? My last one (the second LP I had) had them as soon as I hit the Power switch, so I hadn't even had time to mess with the bios. Maybe if I had another bios chip laying around, I coulda popped it in and it would have worked? I just started OC'ing this bad boy, hoping to get to what I had or even higher. I will definitely order a spare chip incase my bios craps out on me. BTW, it's the 11/27 bios again, so it must not be a recent motherboard. I say this because some other member here got one with a more recent bios. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angry_Games Posted July 7, 2004 Posted July 7, 2004 since the 11.27 is still the only official bios they will almost always come back with this bios. Once in a while they will put some odd bios on it but the norm is the latest official. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RGone Posted July 8, 2004 Posted July 8, 2004 :nod: Silly settings??? hehehe... wanna know Uh hum, you know like 202x14 on my processor that will only do 2740 on air. Hehehehehe. It was quite "silly"; well very silly of me to even put those settings into the bios and then just KEEP on trying to make it boot. Hehehehehe. Sounds a lot like ye ole 'user' error to me. Hehehehehehehe. :shake: I knew it would not boot. Never had. But I just kept banging on it and changing timings and the volts were already maxed and that was not enough for me. Hehehehe. Just kept trying to force the 'silly' settings to boot. Reset; turn off/turn on and the like until it said to me ok user error here we go a little tour thru the valleyofthe4ledsofdeath. HEhehehehe. Boing and now we have it so fubared it won't even boot off the bios savior. Done that 7 times on the UI but never with the benefit of the 4LEDS shining so brightly and purty fer all the world to see. Hehehehehe. Used the same 10 hour CMOS clear with the aid of the bios savior to get her going again. Now I know fer shore, that if I put some very silly and un-realistic settings into 'even' the DFI-619 bios that it too will die. I just a keeler me guess. Hehehehehehe. :angel: But fer shore me is RGone...1ster:cool: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
