Re: Help diagnosing problem.

actualy that sticker just fell off :), I have two cpu boards and it seemed to act the same way with either one but I have no way of testing them but the one I think looks to be in the best condition does not seem to be missing anything. I would not be surprised if it was the motherboard or the I/O I guess I will have to keep my eye out for a I/O and a motherboard. I did clean all the connectors very well and made sure everything was seated well.
