The thing wouldn't POST, I tried everything you oculd think of. The
bare system, out of the case etc. I sent the CPU back and they said it
was faulty, so sent a new one back.
I installed the new one and the PC POST'ed no problem. I set the BIOS
settings etc, then I Exited with saving. The PC then just went to a
blank screen and the drives kept clunking as if they were looking for
something. So I thought I would install XP. Turned the PC off, but when
I restarted it, it wouldn't POST. No beep. Nothing.
Everything is whirring away - all the fans etc.
If I take out the RAM it beeps at me.
Any ideas at all??
Cheers
Sounds like you messed up a BIOS setting. Reset CMOS and try it again.
