Hi,
I bought some new RAM this week (shown in sig) and trying the 'uwackme' burn-in method. I can run the ram at 2-2-2-7 CPC off @ 215 (memtest shows no error for a 1hr run, still need to do prime95 etc. for more testing).
Anyway, trying to tweak other timing for the ram and now the comp won't POST. The first time I can get away with a CMOS clear. I tried to adjust timing again and the 2nd time CMOS clear doesn't work. When comp is power on the power light won't go on. Only the 2 red lights (dimm and standby) come on. HD light blink for a short while. Screen shows nothing as well. So I tried cmos clear for 30mins to 1hr, still no go. Tried the FSB100 jumper, nothing. I don't have any low speed ram (well PC133, but it won't fit of course so that's how far I got so far. Right now I am hoping an overnight cmos clear would help, but I kinda doubt it.
I am suspecting that the BIOS is corrupted somehow. If that's the case then I have to get it reflash or get a new chip. What do you guys think?
