The motherboard is new, so although possible it is less likely that something is wrong on the motherboard. the CPU and the memory modules are old. The 512 module is giving far less errors, so far it is 293 errors. But I get the same error that I mentioned in my first comment with this module...

I am currently running memtest 1.60 that I found on a Knoppix CD. Although it is still running I cant wait to post this and ask: On my 256Mb module it is currently showing 16384 errors, does it mean this module is not usable anymore and deserves to be thrown away? Is it correct to say that...

For some background on my computer, please refer the following threads on this forum: http://www.hardwareforums.com/strange-problem-my-computer-9640/ http://www.hardwareforums.com/motherboard-amd-xp1800-firewire-9617/ Ok, now on to the problem: I went ahead and purchased A7V400 motherboard...

I am not buying from that site. What does 'discontinued' mean? Only from that site owner, or from ASUS? ASUS might have discontinued its production, but does the mobo have any issues? Thanks.

The nearest store only has A7V400 (http://www.superwarehouse.com/Asus_A7V400-MX_Motherboard/A7V400-MX/p/428457) available that suits the Athlon XP1800 that I have. I already have GB7VKMP which is giving me problems (see the 'Strange problem with my computer' thread), so this A7V400 inferior or...

Yes, that harddrive problem was there for a couple of months. looks like the BIOS was flaky, I had to adjust the BIOS settings every other time I start my computer. As I said earlier, I dont see any peripheral cards other memory on the motherboard. everything seems to be built in. I have a...

Re-seating RAM did not help. I dont have the manual handy now, the motherboard is gigabyte 7vKMP, not sure where the BIOS is jumper is. I want to know if this surely is a problem only with the motherboard and its BIOS, or it could be any other problem too?

I will try re-seating RAM. What does it mean to reset jumbers for resetting BIOS? Which jumpers, how do I identify them? Thanks.

Thanks for the info. My computer is currently not starting up (as I mentioned in my other thread), I will check this once it is up. Thanks again.

Nope, that did not help :-(

I cleared all the dust. There are cards(PCI/ISA I mean), except memory module, that I can see on the motherboard, all are onboard. Let me try the battery thing. Thanks.

Abit NF7-S seems to take Socket 462 processor according to http://www.digital-daily.com/motherboard/abit-nf7s/, but you are talking about Socket A. What type is AMD Athlon XP 1800? Btw, I am not very sure if the processor in my computer is XP1800 or XP2200, is there a way to find this out...

I am having a strange problem with my computer since the last few days, which is that it seems to start when I power but I dont see anything on the monitor and keyboard/mouse lights are not ON, and that is making me mad :mad: For some history, I was facing a lesser strange problem since a...

I have not purchased a motherboard myself earlier, so I am not sure how to go about looking for one. I am looking for a motherboard which can host my AMD XP1800 processor, and will have a firewire port to it. Any idea what motherboards are available and where? Thanks! --f
