Ok, someone had a bunch of old hardware lying around and wanted me to put together a cheap computer. There are no guarantees that the every thing is in working order, but the memory and CPU I just bought online, so they SHOULD be ok.
The mobo is an ASUS P5A-B, BIOS REV 1007. The CPU is an AMD K6-2 400mhz. 256MB Ram.
When I boot up, it shows the MOBO model, BIOS version and everything. Shows the CPU as being K6-2 400mhz. Does the Memory test, and says it's ok. Shows Press DEL to enter setup. But once the memory test is complete, it's like it locks up. The Num Lock light won't go on or off, DEL dosn't do a thing.
What do you think is wrong? What should I try? I downloaded a newer BIOS (1010) and the flashing utility, put em on a floppy, put floppy in, booted up, but still does the same thing.
Thanks for any help...
