well, I'll just drop it off and leave it there till tuesday, so you can check it when you want?
I'll bring the mobo, the cpu and the ddr600.
you'll see what happens.

thanx -a-lot!!!!!!

Doc, put the memory in the dimms closed to the socket.
don't attach a fan on the fanheaders, use a molex instead.

try to update the bios to 1.4 or higher. (maybe use other ram).

The Senile Doctor · 30th December 2004, 13:26

updating a bios with NO electrical reaction whatsoever is hardly possible...
the mobo gives NOTHING instead of sometimes some fans spinning, I need activity before I can flash a bios

Ok, very very very fast try before I get to party :feesten: .

All of The Senile Doctor's stuff (3000+, MSI, 2*512 Adata) booted nicely with my OCZ Powerstream and a borked 5900 (even cpu fan not connected)

.

Will swap gear further on this weekend with my stuff.

Only thing I can think of:
1) Superflower won't react good with your mobo.
2) Booting up with your 92mm attached to cpu fan connector could give boot problems (or did you try with boxed cooler?).

Ok, all hardware tested and I give it a 10/10

.

See my previous post for some solutions Herr Dokter.

The Senile Doctor · 2nd January 2005, 20:46

so... everything workd without flaw?
it must be the superflower...i tested two cpu's both superflower...
did you test with the xp90 and enermax 92mm fan?

if that works , all I need is a new psu...

easypanic · 2nd January 2005, 21:40

No cpu fan => boot.
Enermax @ low speed => boot.
Enermax @ high speed => boot.

:excellent

Easypanic earned himself a new rig in my humble opinion

The Senile Doctor · 3rd January 2005, 13:07

you booted thru shortcutting the powerbutton-pins with screwdriver?
