New video card now agp_warn.
Mobo = P4G8X Deluxe.
Original video card = Radeon 9500 pro . New video card= x1600 Pro Last week I finally upgrade my video card to help me hold over the next year after which I planned to goto PCI-E. Everything worked fine for about a week, then one night after a lenghy Call of Duty 2 session, I turned off my monitor, slowed down my PSU fans (New psu also 520 Watt from aspire with fan control knob on back of PSU) and went to sleep. I awoke the next morning, and was not able to get anything to display. Rebooted the machine, and nothing. No post sounds, no VOICE Post sounds nothing. Did some playing around, tried the old card, the old power supply pulled the CPU checked for cracking. Everything was fine. Then I noticed the AGP_Warn light was on. Did some reading in the manual, noticed the P4G8X deluxe's agp slot was pro, and @ 8X agp pushed 1.5v. read on the x1600 cards box, and relieazed that @ 8X it needed only .8v Is it safe to assume that my mobo is pretty much shot? Nothing I do seems to release the agp_warn light from coming on. CMOS cleared, jumpered, complete removal of energy and components and still the same thing. Im going to buy a can of compressed air tonight, and blowout the agp slot its possible that some dust or other air borne particle entered the slot and is stopping me from powering on with the original card. I purchased a new case at the same time, with a front panel motor, that has an inline connetion with the 20-pin power supply connection from the PSU. I did hook up the power button / reset button / LED connectors, as well as the speaker but not the front usb or audio jacks. Im currently looking at gettting a new mobo / cpu and just scrapping the old one (if the canned air doesnt work) but if any of you have any suggestions ill gladly give them a whirl. |
