It was set at 230V so that was correct. I did not change the setting. The
onluy thing different was the addition of the nic card. It was wroking
fine
before the addition.
You did not say what country you were in :-) -USA
Several things may have happened, as they can when you move things
around.
A PS failure that is simply a conicidance. You may have dropped a
screw onto the mobo, when removing one of these slot covers.
It's time to play swap game. If you can, swap the CPU, remove all
RAM and add one at a time, rotating them.
When there's a boot problem it's normally CPU, RAM or Video bd, but
depending on BIOS, you should get some beeps.
I think it must be the HD because it was all running fine exactly beforer in
inserted the nic card. There was no boot up after that. I cannot turn the
computer on-it does not respond in any way other than the fun spinning when
I plug it into to ps. The monitor screen is back and is not receiving any
signal.
with hard drive removed - can you get to the BIOS, and/or does the system
look at, or perhaps boot from the floppy drive-
no, it booted from the C drive
You do not need HD to run - set BIOS to boot from floppy, or CD-Rom.
To get at the BIOS, look at the screen when you start to boot -
it'sll give you the key to press: F10 or something.
If you get nothing on screen at all, your mobo may be bad, PS, CPU or
vid board.
3) does the system beep ( quietly) at powerup-nope
You should hear it, if it does :-) No need messing with the hearing
aid.
