Hello everyone,
I recently bought a celeron 335 (533fsb 256 Cache 2.8ghz) and I know u ppl think theyre awful, but im stuck for cash lol. Anyway.....i tried installin it, taking HSF off and etc etc like normal, then when i came to turn the power on...the monitor just goes blank, and the fan for my cpu just runs constantly at its highest rpm (characterized by a loud vrrrmmmmm sound), nothing happens at all...no beep, no post screen..it just runs like this for ages (which means I cant get to the BIOS or anythin). Now im runnin my comp off of my old celeron 2.2 (Northwood...cr*p!)...Id appreciate it if anyone knew what is wrong, and thus I can sort it out. BTW, i know the internal leads are ok, otherwise it wouldnt work with my old cpu.
Here are my specs;
2.2 ghz Northwood celeron cpu
512 pc 2700 ram (unknown brand)
MSI 6577 Mobo
Asus 9600SE
350watt supply
40GB Western Digital HDD
Has to be somethin to do with the CMOS, BIOS or the mobo's compatibility with prescott cpu's. If anyone could find a thread update for this bios it would be appreciated too.
Thanks for your time,
Yours Faithfully, Ryan 17
