Ok so I got my new components for my computer - mobo, cpu, vid card and ram.

I install everything fine, and go to turn on the machine. Only certain items power on: CPU Fan, Vid Card fan and Power Supply (obviously). DVD/CD players dont power on (unless the cords connecting them to the mobo are disconnected), and my LCD monitor doesnt come on (or recognize vid card - it is poweredO. Mobo is refurbished (yea yea) so I have no documentation.

This is what was ordered:

[quote:95e3f]BIOSTAR NF4ST-A9 Socket 939 NVIDIA nForce4 ATX AMD Motherboard - OEM
Item #: N82E16813138248R $45.60
Track 1 AMD Athlon 64 3000+ Venice 1GHz HT Socket 939 Processor Model ADA3000BPBOX - Retail
Item #: N82E16819103537 $135.00
Track 1 eVGA 256-P2-N553-AX Geforce 7600GT 256MB GDDR3 PCI Express x16 Video Card - Retail
Item #: N82E16814130283 $189.00
Track 1 mushkin 1GB (2 x 512MB) 184-Pin DDR SDRAM DDR 400 (PC 3200) Unbuffered Dual Channel Kit System Memory Model 991145 - Retail[/quote:95e3f]

Honestly dont know whats going on. So annoyed right now, Im thinking of just sending every damn thing back.

Mobo cant be fried or it wouldnt turn on, but only certain items are getting power and powering on. So fucking frustrating.

And how the hell can I send this fucking thing back if the damn superglue on this CPU is good and hardened. . . wallbash:

Simo Häyhä 03-29-2006 02:42 AM
check your wiring, mobos are finicky about that

TGB! 03-29-2006 09:53 AM
What do you mean wiring - nothing is connected to the mobo except power supply when Im doing the drastic measure testing.

Poseidon 03-29-2006 11:04 AM
Could just be a duff mobo. I've had a couple in the past. Do you have a post LED screen on your mobo (a screen with numbers on, what number does it get stuck on) then look it up in your manual.

TGB! 03-29-2006 11:20 AM
No - its a pretty simple MOBO.

Would it be friend and still supply power to the CPU Fan and Video Card?

And if it is fucked - how do I get the damn Heat Sink off - fucker is stuck like cement.

geRV 03-29-2006 04:01 PM
Cpu or graphics board id say. This kind of error crops up all the time and theres no "definate" answer as to what can be causing the problem.

TGB! 03-29-2006 04:33 PM
Wow - you think its the Processor and NOT the mobo? Would the Mobo still boot up if it were the CPU? I dont think its the video-card because I put two AGP cards into the slot and it behaved the same.

Im gonna grab another board from a local retailer (fuck NEWEGG) and see if it boots up. . .

But I didnt do anything to the CPU but move it from the box to the board, and I got no WARNING BEEPS (ill check to make sure I plugged the case speaker in right).

geRV 03-29-2006 04:34 PM
Hard to say what it is really, ive seen this kind of error encountered by either mobo, cpu or gfx card being bad.

TGB! 03-29-2006 04:43 PM
Ok - I thought you were ruling out the MOBO being the problem (which was the only used component).

Hopefully this board:

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.a ... 6813157081

Will have all the cables I need so I dont need to worry about it being a cable issue, or whatnot. Man I so hate dealing with computer errors and shit like this. I just want to game and be able to watch porn in crystal clear definition.

Milla 03-30-2006 05:49 PM

The standard gto has a blue pcb and no pci-e power conector on it. The one you want is this one:

basically the one i have got hasnt got the red backing but rather a blue one, and pci e power connector i have no idea, is this not the real one then?


plus in dxdiag and through catalyst control center it only says x800gto on the menu, not x800gto2? any ideas?

geRV 04-02-2006 03:49 PM
Id send it back if i were you, thats a regular x800gto, should maybe pay the extra nad get an x850 xt be sure you;re getting a proper card.

TonyMontana 04-02-2006 06:57 PM
how good is a

Intel® Pentium® D processor 830 3.0GHZ, 800Mhz FSB

and

ATI x1600 pro 256mb

geRV 04-03-2006 03:30 AM
The pentiums decent, should be able to overclock it a good bit, the x1600 pros a piece of wank.

elstatec 04-03-2006 03:34 AM
basically this is the one i got, its the photo from ebuyer

Id send it back if i were you, thats the same board that arrived when i ordered an x800gto 2 for my uncles system. Its possible to unlock the other pipelines with a bios flash and clock it higher but the core on those cards is the r430 core, the cores on the proper gto2's is the r480 core which has 16 pipes out of the box and can clock to x850 speeds.

If i were you id send it back and pay the extra for a proper x850 board, least that way you know you;re gonna get what you pay for.

elstatec 04-03-2006 07:40 AM
looked around done some research, seems like sapphire sneeky fucks released this 3rd version gto2 with a r430 core bah. Sent RMA request to ebuyer and hopefully will be able to get the real gto2 from http://www.microdirect.co.uk/ProductInf ... &GroupID=0

geRV 04-03-2006 08:09 AM
They are sneaky fucks in how they do it, slap a gto2 heatsink on it and put it into a gto2 box. annoy:

Akuma 04-03-2006 10:26 AM
rofl I told you fags that you couldn't unlock GTO2s anymore

elstatec 04-03-2006 11:31 AM

You don't even need to unlock them, they come now with 16 pipes enabled, all you have to do is set the clocks. And they ARE still available.

Akuma 04-03-2006 01:03 PM

my proper one is coming at 11am tomorrow dance:

elstatec 04-04-2006 05:52 AM
well it came today, the actual last version with the r480 core and power connector, and yes 16 pipes straight out of the box. overclocked it to 540/590 from the stock 400/490 to give it XT PE speeds but took it down until i can find a decent enough gpu cooler.

http://www.overclockers.co.uk/acatalog/ ... oling.html

Arctic Cooling ATI 4 (X800 Series) VGA Silencer


That should be good enough, and pretty much silent.

Stammer 04-09-2006 11:40 AM
I'll keep it short...

Problem :
CD-Drives and USB Hard-Drive don't show up in my computer but the CD-Drives show up in the BIOS, the other thing is the external drive shows up when I turn it off but when it gets switched on it disappears. ( oOo: )

So what the fuck is going on?

geRV 04-10-2006 08:47 AM
Probably your master\slave settings on the cd drive jumper. Set it to cable select and see if it shows in windows.

Stammer 04-10-2006 10:41 AM
Nevermind, it's fixed bad cable. Now I'm still having a problem with random lock-ups and random blackscreens. I was told about memory conflicts with software but how the hell do I go about checking for things like that?

geRV 04-10-2006 10:44 AM
Probably better off updating all your drivers. If the problm sill there then format or something, i don;t spend much time fucking around with software to find out what the problem is, i just nuke the lot. biggrin:

Pretty cheap from dell direct. eek:
Lol ya thats what i was happy: because its almost 200 bucks less
i really want to get that monitor, but it says that certain hardware is required to use it. i have a ATI 9800 Pro, an AMD 1.4ghz T-bird, and 768mb of SDRAM, is that enough?

It would run it fine for windows etc, games would struggle at the monitors native res though. Probably better off getting a more upto date system instead of going for a bigger monitor.
