    PC will start up, but Windows won't boot.

    When I press the power button, it goes through all the startup screens and everything, but right before it gets to the windows loading screen, it just goes black and stays on, with fans working full speed. I've tried booting off the Win XP CD as well, and it doesn't work.

    Speaker problem - NO SOUND after installing drivers.

    Yeah, I pretty much noticed the little audio player that came with it was pretty ****. I'm in the process of uninstalling it now.

    Found the problem. Had it set to Digital Output only.

    Speaker problem - NO SOUND after installing drivers.

    Just the windows drivers? I've uninstalled the drivers now, gotta reboot. P.S. **** YEAH! First build is all-right! I seriously didn't believe my eyes when CS:S ran, a jump from a GeForce 2 to 2 GeForce 6800GTs is a BIG thing. Plus I scored like 8645 3dmarks wih old drivers.

    Speaker problem - NO SOUND after installing drivers.

    Soundblaster Live! 24-bit Labtec arena 685 surround sound 5.1 speakers. I installed the drivers that came with it, there WAS sound, then I rebooted and NO SOUND! WTF!?

    Quick! System won't do a POST!

    I'm thinking maybe the little SLi and Single GPU switcher card isn't in all the way. It barely goes into the slot. Or it may be some cables here and there.

    Quick! System won't do a POST!

    I get NO beeps. GameFAQs people say that it probably POSTed if I don't get beeps, so I'm thinking it's a video problem

    Quick! System won't do a POST!

    =P I'm not that stupid. I know everything is compatible. I know the standoffs are good. I DON'T know how to reset CMOS. I'll try Vid Card seating and RAM now.

    Quick! System won't do a POST!

    What are some common mistakes and overlookings of a first time builder? My system won't do a POST. Monitor just keeps acting like it's in standby. Fans and everything work, but NO POST!

    Ideas for a geezer computer

    Cable-wise, the PSU usually comes with everything you need in the innards of the case, unless you will be SLI-ing, which you are not. The thermal paste, you'll only really need it if you buy an OEM CPU and a 3rd party Heatsink. Retail CPUs come with a Heatsink, and the heatsinks have thermal...

    6800GT SLi, Yay or Nay?

    I'm waiting for the 7 series to come out for price drops. I'm not a money tree, I have a $2000 limit and the rest of my crap is already set up, so SLI 7800s is out of the question. Apparently dual 6800GTs outdo a 7800GTX, and that will be like $649 (almost exactly what I'm paying for these, and...

    Ideas for a geezer computer

    I agree that $1000 is quite the budget for a non-gaming rig. Heck, a $1000 PC would make a fine gaming machine. Any specific LCD screen, size-wise, that you are interested in? Newegg has some great LCD deals.

    6800GT SLi, Yay or Nay?

    Basically, I can afford either one 6800Ultra, or 2 GTs. Any benchmarks for GT SLi around? Any pointers? Will I need super duper cooling with 42 case fans? Do I need to purchase ANYTHING but the cards and the mobo for SLi? What about that connector thing, does it come with the mobo? Is it built...

    First build wishlist is FINALLY finished. Please look over it.

    Alrighty, my mission just took a 180. I've decided to go 6800GT SLi. Problem is (as always) THE MONEY! I've gotten cheaper speakers, got a SB Audigy 2 ZS, then switched it for Value, and then again switched it for Live!. I've also gotten a cheaper, OEM floppy drive which cut down 5-10 bucks...

    Alrighty, I switched it out for an ASUS A8N, it's a couple dollars cheaper too.

    First build wishlist is FINALLY finished. Please look over it.

    Any more opinions on the MSI and ASUS thing? That and the RAM. I need to pick one =P. EDIT: The ATI is a placeholder for an estimate price. Waiting a few more days for a possible price drops, and I may go Dual 6800GTs.

    First build wishlist is FINALLY finished. Please look over it.

    Which is exactly why I'm trying to steer away from OCing, I'm afraid I'll pop something <_< >_> So basically, Corsair, Crucial, and PQI. More opinions?

    First build wishlist is FINALLY finished. Please look over it.

    ASUS... MSI... ASUS... MSI... oh god why did you have to make me choose? Anyway, I've heard the Samsungs are really quiet, and that's good. So I guess I'll keep that. Onto RAM. The price difference between the PQI and the Crucial is actually more than the cost of FarCry. Although the game...

    First build wishlist is FINALLY finished. Please look over it.

    *sigh* So should I change back to Corsair XMS? Or would Crucial do? Cause Crucial would save me $$$ and score me a free FarCry. Also, I <3 MSI, but would an ASUS SLi board be better? I'm trying to keep away from DFI cause I heard they're first-timer horrors. And DAMN Seagates are...

    Is the dfi ultra-d a bad board for a first time builder?

    2GB Corsair RAM Vs. 2GB Crucial RAM w/ Free FarCry

    Okay, okay, it's either this: http://www.newegg.com/product/product.asp?item=N82E16820145491 Or this: http://www.crucial.com/store/partspecs.Asp?IMODULE=CT2KIT12864Z40B OR something better. I'm not planning to overclock anything. I shouldn't even need to with what I'm building.

    Wow, this is totally not off topic >_<. And Newegg does take out negative reviews, but not many, simply cause not many exist. http://www.resellerratings.com Based on reviews on there, Newegg is the 23rd most reliable online store. On newegg's page, going through like 10 pages got me...

    When are the 7800's coming out???

    Like a week or 2. Yes. Anywhere between $400 and $600 each. So SLi would be like $1000 for a top-notch GT or an okay GTX.

    PSU (re)placement, is it hard?

    Great, thanks alot. Any tips for grounding? I don't usually ground myself for anything... >_<

    PSU (re)placement, is it hard?

    I haven't looked anything up, but I'm guessing you just screw it into where it should be (rear end, top) and that's it? That's apart from actually connecting it to everything, of course.

    PSU (re)placement, is it hard?

    Just wondering, is it really even difficult to pop in a PSU? Getting ready for my first build, and I'm buying a case with no PSU, and a seperate PSU.

    Okay, Gaming rig, <$2000, PLEASE look it over.

    Fine, fine. I'll switch to the 3700+. ... aaand done. The price of all that now (with a few goodies, a new PSU ( http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?item=N82E16817103931 ) and a headset) is now around $1,210 Of course, with a GeForce 7800 GT i'm expecting to go up to somewhere...

    Okay, Gaming rig, <$2000, PLEASE look it over.

    Anything else I should do? I don't want to have multiple HDDs, so I'll either stick with the spinpoint or change it back for a good WD Caviar.
