help needed new pc build wont boot

well melbourne after i saw that smoke coming out i just packed it up and sent it back to overclockers for a replacement. i was wondering how many times can i rma a my mobo. also a relief from hearing that it might b just the mobo.
 
hi i just checked the status of my rma on my motherboard and it says returned to customer with no explanation at all whether it was faulty or not or anything. last time it said it was faulty. but this time it says return to customer. what does this mean.
thanks
 
well i put the board back in and is running finally i got it too boot but there r few problems occuring.

1st of all i cant get vista installed on it
secondly i installed crystal xp and was working fine but sometimes there is no display after windows xp logo
thirdly after few runs it started taking a bit long on the bios page where it says the board details. donno wats wrong. :(
 
i agree with you but i cant afford another board as i have spent all my money on this system i cant wait another 2months 2 save another £120 for buying a new board, however the warranty covers the damages anywyz so *** is rong with it if i even use the warranty. dont see no harm in it. :o
 
hi just finished sorting it out working excellent now no problem at all except for installing vista

THANKS TO EVERYONE WHO HELPED ME WITH BUILDING MY SYSTEM MANY THANKS AGAIN.

now i am going to move on to overclocking and i hav no idea about it so i will ask everyone again but i hav to post in overclocking section thanks to everyone again.

and some people think its a wind up, which is not, i am just a person building new system and needed some help.
 
hi i am using a ps2 keyboard not usb keyboard. i am using a usb mouse though. iz there another way to make it work than clearing cmos because i dont want it mess up again. it took me ages to finally make the pc 2 work with help of so many people here, i am so scared that i didnt even plug my case usb and audio cables on the motherboard. i only use usb of the motherboard.

also i just downloaded the cpuz and everything it says its weird
my cpu is 1.80 ghz and it says it 1200mhz and my ram is suppose to be g.skill pc2 6400 800mhz but in cpuz it says 400mhz

why is this if any 1 can tell i will post some picz to prove .
 
hi thanks i did the jumpers it sorted it out but i got a difeerent problem. it says overclocking failed. i didnt even overclock then it says cmos failed and setup in bios. ive sorted that out but now my windows wont load so i tried installing my windows again but when i try to install it it says drive c cannot be formatted this may be due to the disk damaged or not connected properly it says check the scsi connection or something. :confused: i m confused now
 
hi before buying this i researched for 6 months looked at the overclockers a million times. as i was saving for it, but this happened cuz of carelessness. now becasue of that my motherboard wont overclock.
