Hutch Posted June 6, 2005 Posted June 6, 2005 Hi, I just installed a new Lanparty 925X-T2 but I think it is dead on arrival. I installed the CPU/Heatsink&Fan/Ram/Video Card. CPU: Intel Pentium 4 540 3.2Ghz Processor - Processor Speed: 540 / 3.20GHz - Cache Size: 1MB - Processor Socket: Socket 775 Heatsink&Fan: Ultra Fire Socket 775 P4 3.8Ghz Copper Core CPU Fan RAM: Mushkin 1024MB PC4200 DDR2 533MHz (512MBx2) Memory Size: 2 x 512MB Memory Speed: 533MHz PC4200 Memory CAS Latency: 4-4-4-12 Memory Type: Dual Channel DDR2 Pins: 240 Video Card: BFG GeForce 6200 PCIe 256MB w/DVI& TV-OUT GPU/VPU: NVIDIA GeForce 6200 Video Memory: 256MB Memory Type: DDR Interface Type: PCI Express Connector(s): DVI TV/S-Video VGA After installing everything and booting up I get one long beep, repeating forever. I have since tried reseating RAM, Video Card, CPU. I have tried taking the video card out, as well as running only one stick of RAM. The onboard diagnostic LEDs stick at LEDs 2&4 on, 1&3 off (USB initialization). I have also tried running the motherboard out of the case to see if there was a grounding problem. I think the motherboard may be faulty on arrival. Any help or contact numbers would be greatly appreciate. The dfi.com North America website is down and I can not find any contact information. Thanks Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
snipper_cr Posted June 6, 2005 Posted June 6, 2005 Sounds Dead on Arival (DOA) after the troubleshooting. Previously a single long beep (regardless of the LED output) meant major bios problems which even flashing didnt solve, however that was on a LAnparty 875 board. If you have any other memory try switching that out with it, as well as video card. Otherwise contact DFI for a RMA (or your place of purchase which may be faster, depends).

Hutch Posted June 6, 2005 Posted June 6, 2005 Is it possibly incompatible RAM, the RAM I purchased is: http://www.tigerdirect.ca/applications/Sea...sp?Sku=M56-5808 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
saperboy Posted June 7, 2005 Posted June 7, 2005 With the old BIOS, whenever you turn ON the 925X-T2 coming from POWER-OFF (not standby power), on occasion you'd get a loooong beep, to continue just press the RESET button and it should continue to boot up. Try upgrading your bios to the latest, if you haven't done so yet. The latest bios version doesn't have this problem that I've describe. Good luck.

Hutch Posted June 7, 2005 Posted June 7, 2005 I can't upgrade the BIOS because I can't even boot to a screen to upgrade it. Any suggestions? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
saperboy Posted June 7, 2005 Posted June 7, 2005 Have you tried the RESET button once it started to beep? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
