Ok everyone I hate to admit what my final problem was but I feel I have to since I made so many posts :)
I think the original power supply I had did suck. Unfortunately I made a stupid stupid assumption. I assumed that the green light on the motherboard meant it was getting power (as in power...
I still can't get the sucky thing working.
Got the board back from Atacom - they sent a pretty little picture of the motherboard with the 12v connector circled and a note saying make sure and plug this up. Duh! It does the same thing it did when it left my house. Turn on the power and the only...
Just to give everyone and update - I took my processor and ram to a local computer store and had them stick it in a mother board and test it to make sure it worked ok. Both tested fine with zero problems in an MSI board. I'm still waiting on my motherboard to come back from Atacom. I really...
I talked to Atacom today and they claim that the motherboard is fine. They say they tested it and did a burn in test and it was fine. They are shipping the board back today with a report of their test. Now I'm down to the processor or ram being bad I guess. Grr putting together a computer should...
The motherboard is back in CA as of Sunday night and is scheduled to be back at Atacom tomorrow sometime so they should be sending out my new board this week. Then probably another 5 days or so before it get back here in NC. Ahh sigh wish I had waited for newegg to get them in stock fed ex is...
Jeeze Thugsrook just noticed what you have your 1.6 overclocked too - 2.7!!! That's insane :)
My motherboard has traveled more north than west and is still on its way to CA. UPS estimates it will get there the 14th. I'm guessing they might get one back out to me around the end of that week -...
hah yeah I installed the heat sink and fan first time around - those pictures are from when I was taking it down to the bone just trying to get the basics to work. Turning it on didn't do anything and no components even got above ice cold temperature. I never had power turned on for more than...
I just put a reply on my thread Lyzar's P4S533 troubles
Basically just said that I had just got off the phone with Brett from Asus Tech Support this morning and he said hooking up all three power hookups would do no damage ever to your board and that it was suggested that you use all three if...
Ok I just got off the phone with Brett from Asus support. Let me clear up the 3 power supply hook ups on the motherboard. He said the third plug up - the one that takes a power cord like a hard drive is optional but will NOT hurt anything on your board. He suggests hooking up all three if you...
Sorry for the multiple empty posts not sure how but it duplicated one of my messages multple time I guess I refreshed the wrong page. Any how I edited them and made them empty - anyone know how to delete them completely?
Marc got any tips on how you set yours up - are all three of your power hook ups on the board plugged in?
Did you have any issues at all as you were hooking things up and getting it working?
Ok tried the delete key trick but still no go. Also tried hooking it to my other computers case speaker since I wasn't sure the speaker that came with the new case was working. Still no beeps or vocal warnings.
So now I thought I'd post some pictures to describe exactly what I've got set up...
I have read the other threads about the problems others are seeing with this board and thought I would add my own troubles in.
First here is a link to the previous thread:
P4S533 Problems
Now here's where I'm at. I ordered a Maxtop Case Model 147 CSX with 350w power supply, Pentium 4 1.6a...
