    Thanks, jumpers are default, so maybe Asus will have words of wisdom in regards to that. Checked the CPU yesterday and it was fine. Gonna try remounting the board to make sure it is seated correct, and then check my cables one more time.

    I can't seem to get my new system I am building to post. I have read the FAQ on this matter and have those answers. My question is, I have windows 98 installed on the HD I am using. I have installed 1 gig of PC2100 on the new MB. Could the fact I have so much RAM installed and that I have 98...
