New Computer does not boot.

[WinOS2Mac]

I just out together a duron 800 Mhz Athlon on a MSI K7T Turbo KT133A 266FSB motherboard but I can not get it to boot.

It doesn not do anything, the monitor displays "No Signal" or something to like that.

That mainboard has a feature called D-Le or something and when I boot the lights are 0100 or 0010 I really dont know where is starts, but those lights indicate that there is either memory conflict or keyboard. I tried another keyboard with the same result so I think it's the memory.

I will try tomorrow morning to install a new chip but what if that doesn't work?

Does anyone have any ideas an what the problem might be?

Specs...
-MSI K7T Turbo KT133A 266FSB
-800MHz Duron Socket A
-256MB RAM
-Standard 52X CD-ROM
-Standard Floppy Disk Drive
-Seagate 20GB Hard Drive
-Coolermaster heatsink
-Generic 56k Modem
-TNT 32MB AGP Video Card (just for basic computing)

I am trying to build this computer for my uncle because he wants to learn and get familiar with computers.

Well I hope you can Help with the information I gave but if not just ask for more info.

Early tomorrow I will takle a stick of 256MB Micron Memory out of my computer and take it over there and see if that is the problem. If that solves it then hopefully i will be posting back here from his new computer.

Thanks!

Double check your wire and pin connections. Make sure they're on correctly. Reseat your memory and graphics card. Check your cpu more bent pins. It does happen on accident.

Ok I returned the CPU and Memory but I still have the same problem. Any Other Ideas?

Anything special I have to configure on that board before boot-up?


Thanks.

Make sure you have the bus speed set correctly, and make sure the processor cooling fan is plugged into the correct fan header.

Thats Exactly what it was. The Bus Speed was Not what it's suppose to be.

I changed the jumper and It booted.

Thanks for you help.

I just got home from my uncles house.
I had to install everything and make usre everything was working.

Thanks again!
