dear tweaktown forums,
for 2 years you've always been there for me, now is when i need you the most.
I just purchased and put together
P4 2.8 Ghz 478p with hyperthreading
AOPEN AX4SPE-N mobo with 800mhz bus
one stick of 256 PC3200 (400mhz) DDR
ABIT GeForce 4 TI4200 64mb (8x)
NEC DVDRW drive
120 GB Western Digital hdd
17 inch LCD
Yeah so that sounds pretty sweet right? well unfortunately for me i have run into some problems. To the extent of my knowledge everything is installed correctly. When i went to power on after putting all this together the only thing that happened were the fans started spinning. So then i started playing around and when i unplugged the IDE devices, the fans spun up and then initiated and started spinning up faster. But when they spun faster, it still did not output to the monitor and needless to say i have been pretty pissed off. Is it possible i have damaged hardware, or is it human error that is keeping me from my glory? Please help.
