Rebuilding a Dell 2300 ... keeps shutting down during Windows installation
Anyone:
I just broke down my 2300 Dimension. Pulled the old hard drive. (nothing important there, crashed anyway) Replaced the power supply with a 450w (new) Installed 2 new Seagate hard drives and a new dvd rom. To start, I setup only the master drive to load the OS (Windows 2000 pro) as well as the floppy, and the original cd / rw During the initial stage of loading the OS, the system shuts down as soon as it gets to "Loading Windows". Exchanged the power supply with new ones ... 3 times! Same issue. Jumped the CMOS ... (again) and started over. Checked the CMOS and set the 1.8 cpu to clock at 10 (default, I think) No other changes were made. I'm stumped Anybody got any ideas as to what is going on? Thanks... |
