Help!!. BG-7 fails to boot first time
Please help me!
Just built a new PC:-
Abit BG7 (Using onboard video)
Crucial PC2100 256mb
P4 Northwood 2GHZ.
350w Enermax PS
With just the above parts installed, when I switch the PC on (i.e turn power on at the Power supply then switch on at the front) the pc will not POST. No error message or bleeps. I try and reset at the front and it makes no difference. Switch off at the rear then on again makes it jump to life. It never fails second time.
Like all good faults it is intermittent, however I have replaced the memory and power supply and it is still failing.
I have reseated the processor chip. I am using "optimized defaults".
Any thoughts?
Cheers
