What is it with PCs, why can’t they just work after putting them together. There is always some niggle. Why haven’t the PC Standards people made the pinouts for the switches and LEDs standard, and combined into a single connector. If you open up a Mac Tower they have molex connectors for the LEDs and Power Button, they can only go on one way!
I went to the Computer Fair today with Mati, since he was building a new gaming rig for himself. He went a bit crazy, my budget was a little lower so I just went for an Asus board and a Core Duo 2 6400 and 1GB of DDR2 RAM. We got a good price because we were buying quite a few bits and pieces. Mati went for a totally new system including case. Were as my silent case which I bought years will do the job just fine.
It looks like I might have a bad board or memory, so I will go get some different memory on tuesday now, since everything is closed over christmas.
