by the 'fan' you mean the CPU cooler..... if so looks like overheating...reboot to the bios go to the 'power' menu and check the 'hardwear monitor' leave it running and watch the temps.....while you in the bios go to pci pnp & change the Plug &play option to 'yes'

 

[Azazel]

ok...i changed it to yes....emm...the temp is at 20-21 ....il tell you if it chages in a few min

 

[Oliver]

Default

hehe...im back already...after installing vista the computer did what it used to do...screen turns off...while the whole computer is still on (tower)...and fan goes really fast...i tryed to turn it on again....but it did the same thing after a minuit

I'd set everything to default...after a cold boot....in Bios, take 2 sticks of ram out to 2Gigs, delete any partitions on your hard drive (check it with Large Drive Tools -make a boot disk), plug in std keyboard and mouse.

Work your way up again...Partition if really neccessary (two physical disks or more is better)...Vista install, memory install, install all rest once system is stable.........ok I know its a pain but i do it everyday for customers nd its the onlyway to work out the problems

 

[Azazel]

oh...and by the way...when i turn on the computer it dosent beep to show its ok...is there anything that i had to install to the mobo so that it can beep

iv only got 2gb in at the moment...well vista is installed now...it has a problem of sestarting...

it just turned off again...when i was in the bios...didnt get to see the temp...but a few seconds before it swirched off it was 21.5

all asus MB come with a white block that you mount all you case pins on then hock up to the mb if you used it and if you case has a speacker it should work

 

[Azazel]

oh...i have an antec 900...i atached everything to the white block..(that could be attached) so i guess that ok .

 

[Azazel]

any ides anyone...plzzz

 

[Frogger]

now your really in the crapper your going to have to strip it down to the basics unplug everything from the psu& the mb Except the cpu fan,the hdd with the op sys,2 stxi ram, vid card....JUST as for the sake of asking did you plug both 4 pin cpu power pulg in the mb??

 

[Azazel]

emm i think im gonna have to do that...ehhh...any way...do you mean the 24pin connector and the 8 pin connector....to the mobo...(well i couldent fina a 4 pin connector (2 on top and 2 on the bottom) so i just put an 8 pin connector in ...

 

[Frogger]

8 pin in here??? pic

 

[Azazel]

yes....could tha be the problem (i took the black thing off)

 

[Frogger]

you needed to take the black 'thing' off to plug in 8 pins

 

[Frogger]

did you uus the right 8 pin plug pic

 

[Azazel]

emmm yes...i had no 4 pin connector...and it came off...so i put an 8 pin in...i think i read it in the mobo guide....or i could have misread it if i have done anything wrong...was it wrong to take it off

 

[Azazel]

did you uus the right 8 pin plug pic

emm...ya..i uesd the top one

 

[Frogger]

THEN your going to have to start back at the basics get back after you re&re the parts

 

[Azazel]

ok...i will have to do that tomorrow though...dont have the time at the moment

 

[Azazel]

hey i reasembeld all the parts...and im still having the same problem...hmm..

 

[kyle2020]

ive just read your system specs - could be bad RAM, power not supplied to needed areas, etc etc. Try searching for a walkthrough of installing all your power supplies cables etc, and after your confident ALL of them are plugged in correctly (please dont forget the CPU fan, spesh with a q6600, could be fatal) and try it again, start from scratch, re format you HDD, etc etc.

if still no luck, i had a sort of similar problem - i hadnt set my RAM voltages correctly and i kept getting BSOD upon usage, but mainly on boot up. so check your voltages in BIOS, if ok, try running just 2 sticks, if not, vary the sticks you use - could be a knackered unit.

keep us updated (Y)

 

[Azazel]

emm..i tried changin the ram voltage and changeing all the ram...still nothing...i reasembled everything again...still nothing...i changed the cpu cooler to the stock cooler...still nothing.....and i took it some pc dude today...he turned out to be an ediot... .....its been 4 day now...and i did everything i could...i dont know what to do...

 

[Frogger]

so with this config
"down to the basics unplug everything from the psu& the mb Except the cpu fan,the hdd with the op sys,2 stxi ram, vid card."
==same old story
if you try 1stix of ram with the volts for it set @ 2.0 in dimm slot B1 & try to reboot

 

[Frogger]

^^^^ never mind

 

[Frogger]

I Hate to say this cause I know it's a pain but Ithink it's time to look at your retailer's return policy ie; 7 day exchange? 30 day exchange? and see about getting another MB.....thats asssuming that you purchased it locally and not online
