    It`s me again, sorry! this time Itried to be more specific about my problem!

    I upgrated the computer with the mobo Asus a7n8x E deluxe, 512 Mb RAM pc 3200 and the AMD athlon xp 3000+
    After I put everything together, I started the computer and the first thing that appear is the asus utility,
    so I upgrated the bios with the rev. 1012 (everything is been fine).

    My problem is:
    when I start the computer, first there is still the asus utility
    ( you know........press. alt+F2 to enter Awd flesh utility)
    and then there is a the regular black screen wich says:

    Phoenix AwardBios v6.00PG
    ASUS A7N8X-E Deluxe ACPI Bios rev.1012
    AMd Athlon xp 3000+
    Memory testing 512Mb OK
    Primary master Maxtor 546673838
    Primary slave Maxtor 323442345
    Secondary master Memorex 52Max 4545444
    Secondary slave none

    Warning!! Case Open Warning

    If I press DEL I can enter the setup

    (at this point I can`t do anything except go into the bios!!)

    the computer seems to see everything: Ram, 2HD, CPU, CD room, the floppy (because I could install the new bios), the new FAN that I bought works fine, so I`m traying to say that every single component (except the mobo mybe!) works fine.

    In conclusion I was traying to reinstall windows but I couldn`t because I can`t boot the system both Cd room and floppy, (and of course I changed the order in the bios!)

    when I put the boot disk in the floppy drive and restart the computer the first thing is one beep from the mobo and then the floppy start to load because I can hear some noise, but then nothing!

    I tried also to reset the CMOS but nothin happened!

    I don`t know what to do anymore can you help me please!
    Sorry for my english, I`m learning!
