If you know anything about this please help me out. I am about done building my new machine. Well, anyway I started it up just to make sure everything was working like I have always done before I finish. I shut it down and when I went to restart it it would flash on and off and on and off and would not stop until I shut off power. It would continue to do this until I reset cmos. I tried again and it did it again. If you are familiar with this problem or if there even is a problem let me know. Thanks.

Re: Wierd behavior or not?
first step - strip down the system until you have the minimum stuff installed
then try it again

Re: Wierd behavior or not?
It's either your video card came loose or it just died.
My experience with video cards - don't reset or restart too often.
I lost my 7600GT in that manner, trying to remove viruses and malware.
In the end, I bought a cheapo 8500GT, reformatted my drive, and installed Vista.
When you do reinstall in XP, install everything then do a one-time restart.

Re: Wierd behavior or not?
btw - what flashes on and off? the lights at the front of the case or do you mean the whole thing turns on and off
