Well this is what I got to day...
Turned on the computer and it started up fine, went to load a game to play and the computer just froze. The only way to shut it off was to hold the power button for over 8 seconds. I then started it up again and got the mobo start-up screen, the one with your bios cpu memory info ect.... I saw CPU was listed as a AMD 1500+ when its not. Then nothing, it froze like that so I had to turn it off again. Now it wont start up all I get is a single beeping sound over and over.
Things I tested....
I tried a diffrent power supply from another case.....
I stuck my memory and 9800pro in this computer so those are fine....
I took my CPU off and cleaned it and stuck some more AS5 on and put it back on....
I cleared my bios with the jumpers.....
Still the same thing... so I guess it's my mobo or CPU, but how do I tell which it is? I don't have anyway of testing either with different hardware. Is there one more step that I have not done yet?
PS>My mobo and cpu are correct in my sig..
