GA-7DPXDW-P Does Not Boot
Hello All,
I just bought a new GA-7dPXDW-P. I have installed one of my old working 1GB buffered ECC modules, both MP1900+ and a ATI 8500. Also I connected the cpu cooler/fan, the power on/off, reset, and speaker connectors. My power supply is the Turbo-Cool 425 ATX. Now when I try to start up that system (for now I just want to get to the BIOS so no HD or anything else is connected) the fans go on for like 5 seconds. Then they shut down and the red LED goes on indicating overheating problems. By default this protection should not be set. Also the cpu are still cold so that LED comes on for some different reason. Has anybody experienced the same problem? What's the solution for that problem? Any ideas are greatly appreciated. Rob |

I have the following observations to add:
1) Correction. The fans don't go on for 5 seconds but more like 1 second 2) When I remove the memory module, i.e. only the two cpus plus fan are connected the same problem occurs, that is the LED indicating overheating goes on. So the system doesn't even get so far to check if there is any memory installed at all. 3) When either of the two cpus is inserted in socket 0 and no cpu is inserted in socket 1 then still the same error occurs. 4) If I remove both cpus and the ram the fans stay on. After a short while an alarm goes on. Any ideas what's going on here? Rob "rob" wrote in message . net... Hello All, I just bought a new GA-7dPXDW-P.
