Hi all,
I have an AN35 ultra board. Today, I went to put a modem in the machine. The computer was turned off (obviously). As soon as I plugged the modem into the pci slot, a red LED on the board just below the AGP slot lit up. The machine would not turn on. Removing the modem and disconnecting the power did not help-the machine still won't turn on at all. The motherboard instruction manual says that the LED is to warn when a 3.3v AGP card is plugged in, as the board only supports 1.5v cards. It says that it will flash in that event. In this case, it does not flash. It stays lit whenever AC power is applied. Attempting to turn the machine on does nothing-no fans turn or anything. However, all the time AC is supplied, the red led, a green led up near the atx connector, and the led's on the network port all light up.
Since I wasn't messing with the video card (and didn't bump it), I think the board is probably screwed. I dunno for sure, but it's funny that the red LED would light before I even attempted to turn the machine on. Any ideas?
