Ok I just bought a new mobo and cpu and I cant get everything running correctly. Then when I just boot it skipping the bios(DUNNO WTF IS GOING ON, BIOS WONT GO ON CORRECTLY OR SOMETHING!), it starts to standby every 2seconds at the xp screen before you log in and wont stop! HELP HELP HELP! And yes I did reinstall windows xp. .....................:swear:
It could be a feature of your mobo, mine does it too. To save time it skips the POST (Power On Self Test), and just loads the data from the first test. I know this sounds stupid, but make sure your power button (the one you press to turn the computer on) is working properly. When you press the power button whilst in XP, it will do something like Shutdown, hibernate or standby. It could be that the power button is not working and is telling the computer you are pressing it all the time, and therefore xp goes into standby.
It happens to be something wit the graphic cards. Cause I took my pci 1 out and it worked just fine, now I need to disable the integrated 1 all the way. Still not sure how.
to disable onboard grfx (you may need to connect your monitor to onboard grfx) enter BIOS and select an option that says something like ¨Integrated Peripherals¨, in there will be an option to enabl / disable onboard grfx, disable, save to CMOS and exit
Nopes not in my bios. Its pissing me off. Ive been workingon this thing day and night for like 3days now! Heres my motherboard: ASUS A8V-MX VIA UniChrome Pro K8M800 Socket 939 mATX MB please look into that thanks
If I wanted to disable my onboard graphics, I would have to enter BIOS & go to 'Advanced Setup' (I think) - select 'PCI/Plug & Play Setup' and then by using the Page Up & Down keys, select 'Disable' - save & exit. It might be worth exploring to see if your BIOS configuration interface is similar to mine.
you may need to connect your monitor to the onboard grfx to be able to disable it, connect your monitor to onboard grfx enter BIOS and disable onboard graphics now plug in your new grfx card boot & install drivers
