hello again all of you!

i have got one step further, i have got output to the monitor, turns out there is another 12v cable for the motherboard (feel like an idiot)....any ways!

next step i guess is to install the OS

i have put the disc in, that is fine, but when it gets to the installation screen, nothing loads up, it just sticks on the screen, acting like it is requiring input!

it doesnt freeze up or anything, just hangs on the screen.

any help on this would be brill!

thanks

Make sure you set your motherboard bios to boot up first from your DVD/CD drive.

Restart PC with your windows disk in drive - then it will say press any key to boot with CD.

Press any key to boot with cd and all should be good.

If your installing Vista it will take a while on installation bit.Its probably not hanging just be patient! lol

Let us know if you need any further help.
