8K7A Digital Read out

[yohann]

After moving, I hooked up my AMD 900 Duron with Epox 8K7A Mobo and I dont get anything on the monitor. Checked monitor with another computer and it worked fine. Took cover off computer and found fan had fallen off of the cpu heatsink.

The digital readout on the mobo shows "FF". Does this mean the CPU is fried?

FF means functioning fine. That is what mine says.

Some discussion about what it means but after a successful post and bios initiation it should say FF, but also if it hasn't started the bios function it says the same. My fan came off once and same problem, try to clear cmos after fans fixed, then try again.
