I was ****ing about an now it dont get to bios!

IT runs for about 5secs n shuts down!

How can i re set?

Theres 1 2 3 pin for CMOS i put in 1,2 normal 2,3 to clear but then i try power up nothing happens!

Si

 

Nothing should happen. Change the jumper, count to 20 (don't power on). Put it back to normal again and it should be reset

 

How do you mean?

 

Nar same old error! ****!

It crashes according to the post code error...

detect memory
-auto detection of DRAM size type ECC
-auto detect of l2 cache

 

Switch off your PC.
Move the jumper to the "clear" pins.
Count to 20.
Move the jumper back to the "normal" pins.
Switch on PC

 

Or if it's an old rig, remove the lithium battery for a few seconds.

 

Still no! its brand new Abit motherboard

think i was messing about in BIOS the disable CPU If fans not working and all that , well since then its not work, so is that BIOS or CMOS? it loads seriously for 3secs then whole power out

Si

 

tee hee. I had similar problems.

try changing the battery - yes I know, new mobo, etc, but try it.

Ihad countless problems which resulted in buying a new mobo and ram.

gave up and bought a laptop!

 

Do you have the cpu fan plugged into the header on the motherboard?

If you havent the machine will think that the fan has failed.

Don't plug anything too powerful into the header (eg Delta) as you may burn out the header. Any lowish power 3 pin fan could be used as the MB won't know if its attached to the cpu heatsink.

Obviously you will have to power the heatsink fan or you will fry your cpu very quickly especially if its an Athlon.

 

The manual for my Abit KR7A-Raid says
"before you clear the CMOS, you have to first turn the power off(including the +5v standby power). Otherwise your system may work abnormally."

 

Clever boy

explain this the
POST ERROR FF

Boot attemp(INT 19h)

i dinna what that is but ****ing bleeps and the motherboard shows the FF in the Digital display
