Hi Marie,
Sounds like either:
1) the power on the back of the case is set to 230 rather than 115
if your in the US or the other way around if you're in Europe.
or
2) something (the CPU - usually, or a card or the memory) is not seated
correctlly

3) the power connection ot the mainboard is not
Having built a number of boxes myself, I have found that this type of
behavior can be one of several things. In addition to trying what Nicci
suggested, you may also want to see if the motherboard is shorting
out. Lots of times I find that the metal standoffs used to support the
mainboard in
hi marie -
here's a potluck list of things that come to mind :
- make sure your mainboard is mounted correctly with no parts of it touching
the back plate. (metal - on - metal = bad heheh)
- as a test, unplug your IDE cables, floppy cable, all cards except video,
and your led's. try to boot. ev

Hi,
Hope everyones weekend was good. Quick (unusual) question...Is there any way
to hide the boot screen (on Red Hat 6.1)? I would like to replace it with
short stories and poetry and pictures if possible. If so, where do I put in
a script for this? Can it be done? I would really like to personal
Thanks for the Link Liz. What I am refering to is the Red Hat specific

I kept trying to figure out how to partition with the Linux tools and my
setup. It was only seeing the extended (4.0 GB) and not the two logical
