Processor DOA?


Recommended Posts

Hey everyone, here is what is happening:

 

- All power connections made except for the fdd on the PCI Express region

 

- 1 stick RAM either in slot 2 or 4

 

- vid card in slot 1 (also tried the other PCIx slot)

 

Power up, all fans spin. The two yellow LED's are lit. Three orange LED's are lit on the bottom of the board.

 

No video or beeps. Am I looking at a dead processor at this point?

 

Any way to troubleshoot beyond this?

 

Thanks,

 

J

hmm...one way to check your CPU is to try it in another board. Or maybe you can take it to a store (or a friend's) and get them to test it. Also, make sure that every power connection is attached. It seems to make a real difference. There might be something funny related to the RAM. I would just try some other RAM, just to rule out that as a possiblility.

Belay my last...combination of yapping on the cell + 2 coors + assembling a new system@22:30 = J forgot to plug the 4pin power connector in.

 

Time to decide on what to do

...talk, drink or finish this system.
