Hey I just finished building my computer and when I turn it on the only thing that happens is all the fans turn on and the floppy drive light stays on. The monitor screen stays blank also. Also right when I flip the switch on the power supply everything turns on and in order to turn it off you have to do it buy flipping the switch again. I would really appriciate if someone could help me out by talking it out through AOL or AIM. My AIM screen name is lm0riginal, copy and paste that. But if that is not possible then this thread will help. Thanks alot.

Jump to PostIs this your best buddy that gave you the board? I would take it back this is getting real suspiciuos now to me atleast. Maybe the board had a good dose of static (prior)
good luck if you have to return stuff to tiger direct..card
You should see the better …
Jump to Postit could be i just wanted to let you know about gigabyte me personnally i will never buy there products again that is my opinion
Jump to PostI had a GigaByte board with my AMD machine. No complaints about it but I wasn't exactly thrilled with it either. It was just "okay". Then I got a P4 with an Asus motherboard and I've never been happier. Since then I will only buy from Asus. :)
Jump to Postdo you know a place that works on computers in your area they have testers have them test the board and they will tell you if it is bad
Jump to PostI have an ASUS in mine and some of the bits in there are still from my old PC which fried. Check the mobo and processor specs against the OS that you wish to run as I discovered that you can't run win98 on a winxp mobo/processor combo.
Where abouts …
