Just tried to install 8KMM3I and get no video signal to monitor. It has
onboard video, tried a video card in agp slot still no video, tried another
processor, still no video, Tried Ram in both Dimm slots , still no video.
Set the board up outside the case, still no video. Don't have another stick
of ram to try, it is a brand new stick of crucial, 256mb pc 2700. Fixing to
give up and rma the board. Any suggestion would be helpful before monday as
that is when I will send it back if cannot find the problem elsewhere.
Thanks in advance.
John

Try holding down the <Insert> when switching on.

Are you getting any speaker beeps?

Hi

If you are having trouble booting the system and getting a screen try the
following multi-step procedure. Power off your system first before
completing any of the following tips. Skip the items you may have already
tried.

1) Check CMOS clear jumper JP1 (JBAT1 on some systems). Set for CLEAR for 5
seconds, then move back.

2) Check CPU host clock jumpers (if any) are properly set. Note: does not
control memory bus.

3) Check your power supply. Should be 110/115v for North America.

4) Unplug all data cables for IDE and FDD from the motherboard.

5) Unplug all power supply cables attaching to your IDE and FDD drives.

6) Remove all cards and devices EXCEPT for video, RAM, CPU, CPU
heatsink/FAN.

7) Move memory into a different bank, if available.

Cool Unplug the CPU and reattach.

9) Ensure your CPU heatsink/FAN is attached properly to the CPU.

10) If you use a variable RPM fan ensure its set for full speed.

11) Retest.

12) If 1-11 do not help power off and test the motherboard outside the
computer case to eliminate a case/motherboard power short. Test on a
non-conductive surface. Do not test on an anti-static bag!

13) Retest. If the board now works check for case problems. If the system
still is not working continue...

14) You may have a possible hardware problem. Any device in the system may
be a possible culprit. Use process of elimination to determine the cause.
Swap out as many components as possible starting with RAM, CPU, POWER
SUPPLY, VIDEO CARD (if present) and/or MOTHERBOARD.
