chapter 34: the brand new (yes the 2nd one) duron 1.3

went to tampa today and bought:

duron 1.3ghz chip with a coolermaster fan/heatsink
256mb sdram

CHECKED, DOUBLECHECKED, TRIPLECHECKED to make sure there was no paper between the heatsink and core :)

bolted it down with ONLY the felt screws.

and she doesnt even turn on.

somebody please, this is too much. when i die im goin straight to heaven cos i already spent my time in hell.

OK, so I am thinking, test the new CPU in another PC.

Actually, I would test each individual component in another PC, that you arent bothered about dying. If they all check out then test with combinations of two components from the ill PC.
Then if you still cant get things to work in your favour, I would sell the individual components, to other people, let no two of the components go to the same person. The go out and buy completely new components and try again, or go to a shop and get a custom one done, or buy a Dell, Compaq, IBM or whatever.

I really am sorry, I wish we could help out getting it sorted. You could also try taking it to a PC diagnostic place, they will have plenty of alternative components left over to get the thingn working, might cost you a bit, but once it is working, it will be worth it, if you do get it fixed, then let us know what was screwing it up, I think bye now we would all love to know what had us all so stumped.
 
Cam,

Your'e to wrapped up in this you now can't see the wood for the trees. :)

Why don't you take Xsivforces offer up and get him to help you. Two minds are better than one.

By now I'd have probably thrown the lot out the window !!!
 
Cam, the offer still stands. I'm not sure I can come to Lakeland for a while, but you are welcome to bring your machine up to DeLand and we can have a look at it. Just let me know. My weekends are pretty much available in the afternoons.

Glad to hear it.
But one question, you tired the PSU before. Was that not helping that time as the CPU and or Mobo were screwed as well?

Glad you got it working though.

This should def be stored, shows how good we all are, sort of.

I'd be happy to shoot down there and fix *whatever* you have that needs attention....;) :p:D
 
gt, i think the psu died somewhere in the middle of all this. dont tell me how.

during the initial phases of this bs operation i cross tested my two power supplies and each performed fine on each other, of course the dead psu only had to power up a pII 350, who knows.

your system would not boot with a bad processor, it would stop at the bios post test.

Also Hi EP and people. I found this place again while looking through a oooollllllldddd backup. I have filled over 10TB and was looking at my collection of antiques. Any bids on the 500Mhz Win 95 fix?
Any of the SP crew still out there?

Impressed you have kept this alive this long EP! So many sites have come and gone. :(

Just did some crude math and I apparently joined almost 18yrs ago, how is that possible???
