Startup/Boot Issue

[Seigal12]

Hi guys,

Still having abit of an issue when starting up my new build sometimes. I have:

E6600
GeForce 7950GX2
P5W Deluxe (1201 BIOS)
GeIL RAM (2x1GB) 6400
Seagate 320GB HDD
SeaSonic 600W PSU

Here is the problem, when booting up (normally after shut down, not on a restart) sometimes the monitor does not receive a signal and sits there blinking away waiting for the computer, and the keyboard lights (num lock etc) don’t light up either.

Now when I unplug or even turn off the PSU and then plug in/turn on again and try start it up, there are no problems. I can only assume this is a motherboard issue… but I am not 100% sure.

Has anyone else had something like this? Or does someone have an idea of what it might be?

Thanks.

Actually (and I can foresee the comments)

I don't actually get a BIOS beep, as I don't have an internal speaker!

How can I check the CMOS keeps its settings? I'd expect there to be a warning if they didn't... but I'll test em anyway.

I know I have the latest offical BIOS, as I flashed it the other day to 1201.

The motherboard probably beeps, but I have no internal speaker to hear it...

Still having the same problem with getting the monitor/mouse/keyboard a signal.

But it's gone one step further, now my computer turns itself on in the middle of the night scary!
