Hello everyone,
Unfortunately my computer has apparently decided to go on strike for 2009 as I have been unable to get it to boot today.
When powering the machine on I can see the startup ASUS splash screen but then it freezes and gets no farther. If I press DEL to enter setup it does seem to recognize that I’ve pressed the key but then it freezes with the message Entering Setup…
Here’s my specs:
Motherboard - ASUS A8N-SLI Deluxe
Processor - AMD Opteron 64 Dual Core @ 2.0Ghz
RAM - 2GB Corsair XMS PC 3200
Video Card - nVidia 7800 GT
Windows Vista Home Premium
I’ve tried removing all components except the motherboard and the video card but the problem still occurs
I have also tried clearing the CMOS to no avail…
Any other ideas before I start shelling out money for new components? And on that note, any feelings as to which component is the culprit here?
Many thanks!
