Ok boys and girls...I really need your help!
I just installed an A7V8X-X with an XP 1800 and 256 MB of PC2700, an
ATI Radeon 32MB Vid, and Win98SE.
Here is the problem: I cannot cold boot without it hanging at POST
following PnP Init...the crazy thing is that a Ctrl/Alt/Del AND/OR a
restart boot up fine. At times, a cold boot will default into the Bios
at the Proc speed indicator - stating that '...my proc speed indicated
does not match the proc speed - your system is now running in safe
mode....'
It's listed as 1533Mhz with the default CPU Frequency Multiple (11.5)
and CPU External Frequency (133/33). I have tried the following (based
on other's past threads about same problem) to no avail:
- Larger power supply
- Tuning down the proc speed/multiple/frequency
- Disabling Quick POST in Bios
- Checking all connections to pc/mobo/etc
- Talking to it
Has anyone out there ever resolved this same issue? I have seen alot
of threads with a number of possible solutions, but none seem to
work..
HELP!!
