    Machine Not Posting...

    No beep codes. It beeps once. Which means everything is keen. I've not tried to boot without a video card. I will tell him to try that. The RAM is totally fine. I tried it in another machine. The mobo is fine, as well. My brother and I both have an Abit KG7 and I swapped them. Both have...

    Radeon 9800 XT Types

    I'd go with the Sapphire Radeon... I've read that it doesn't come with a coupon for Half-Life2 (though I got one when I got my 9800 XT), so just make sure you check if that's important to you.

    Asus P4C800-E DLX Wont boot, but fans spin for 1 sec. HELP

    Have you tried taking everything out and just powering up the motherboard? Also, I'd check putting your system on a towel (or a non conductive surface) and try booting it that way and see if that helps. On more than one occasion did I have a computer not boot up because it wasn't properly...

    Advantages of installing motherboard INF files?

    Does it actually make a difference if you install DirectX 9 before your video drivers? As in, give you different performance in games?
