The MOBO is a 478 I put a Pentium 4 processor with 800 FSB nothing works now, I put the old one back in but still nothing. I also installed 1gb ram but I know its compatible, 2100. I can't get it to do anything want even boot up. I would hate send all this stuff back to NewEgg but I don't have anything to work with. Help!!!!!!!!! PS. I thought the motherboard would just hold the proccesor to 533.
try clearing the cmos on the mobo by pulling the battery on it for a few minutes then putting it back in.
Come on Man where is the battery, Do you really think its messed up. I don't wanna trash the whole thing if I can salvage it.
i don't *think* it's messed up, but i don't know. to find your battery, google for your mobo model number and find a diagram of it. it should be in your manual, but you don't state if you have it or not.
800fsb on a 533mobo thats not a clever idea since the proc is gonna run at lower speeds and the ram too and might even damage it
we've kind of put that together, elokito...we're currently trying to determine the extent of the damage.
Found the Battery and will be trying to do whats suggested, I have already order another MOBO, Please tell me what to do so I don't static it out before it gets a chance. I don't really know how to ground myself........I know sorry.
