ASUS P5AD2 Premium video problem at boot
First I am a noob. This is my first attempt to build a PC. Please be
kind! I have the following components: ASUS P5AD2 Premium MB Leadtek 6600 GT PCI Express video card 2 x 512 MB Corsair 4200 DDR2 modules 1 Seagate SATA 120 GB drive ANTEC NeoPower 480 PS Thermaltake Tsunami Dream case HP CD ROM Drive The machine will boot and I can get into the BIOS. I am using BIOS defaults. I was able to boot the machine with a boot CD running "Barts PE" Windows preboot environment (XP SP2). I was able to start an XP install, but it failed because it would not recognize that I had a drive. After a few reboots, the video problem started. The machine will still Boot, go through Post, and check for devices, and I can enter the BIOS setup. Everything looks OK until it is time to read the CD and start installing Windows XP, the screen is filled with Red Boxes that slowly migrate across the screen until the video screen appears to be just red and black stripes. I have reset all of the connectors, reseated the video, cleared the CMOS, reset the RAM, tried each RAM modules seperately, but I still get this video problem. At this point, I am lost. Any guidance would be greatly appreciated. |
