Dagnabbit! So I finally get my sweet new 1Ghz Tbird (and it's an AXIA!) and the ASUS A7V133/Raid mobo and get a chance to put 'em together in my 300W-supplied case yesterday.
And ^)#*)(&*@! it won't POST! Crap.
Here's the situation: I previously had an Epox 8KTA3 & AMD Tbird 850 running fine in this case, with 1x Micron 256MB DIMM.
Swapped out the mobo/chip for the new mobo/chip, and the only jumpers I fiddled with on the ASUS were:[unorder=disc]
[#]Enabled "Jumperless" mode (which is the default, come to think of it)
[#]Enabled "RAID" mode
[/unorder]
But the blasted thing never even POSTed, nor did it give me any error beeps (btw, I had already unlocked the 1Ghz L1's w/the 0.5mm pencil trick).
Suspecting the CPU, I tried the original Tbird 850 in the mobo - same issue
However, I'm not entirely certain that it's definitely a problem w/the ASUS mobo, because previously I had tried the 1Ghz Axia in the Epox mobo (when it was still hooked up) and that system didn't POST either - I should have looked into it further at that point, but I was in a rush to get out of the office, and figured it was just gremlins...sigh.
Anyhoo, before I contact the vendor on Monday, I was wondering if you folks had any ideas/suggestions ... has anyone else had similar issues w/the ASUS A7V133 mobo, or any suggestions regarding it?
