Hello

Due to an improperly seated heatsink, my Tbird 1.44 seems to have been
fried in this board. I bought a XP2100+ from Newegg as a replacement. I
have read nearly everything there is about how to make this processor work
with A7M266. Unfortunately I can't event get a post from this MB.

I have tried the following:

1) Shorting the soldering points to reset the BIOS
2) Change the jumpers to 1.8 and 1.85 volts.

Unfortunately none of these steps have worked.

Any help, hint or suggestion is greatly appreciated.

Regards
 
Check your Bios version-some older A7M266's Bios wont support an XP. Go to
ASUS site and download the latest version and flash utility.

Thanks for the reply, however I can't even get a post let alone have the
ability to flash a BIOS. I think my only option is to find a Duron and use
that to flash the BIOS.
