First off, sorry for all the questions, im just working on two desktops right now: I got this MS-6330 board from a friend, and i looked around and i think it might be a gate way model, he bought it off ebay.. The Problem is, it wont show any video. keep in mind it doesn't have on board.. I have a pci video card in it, the howl system is "running" in the sense that the fans are going. and the power led is on. When i hook it up to my moniter i get nothing. the only manual i can find is only a similar motherboard. and its crap any way doesn't tell me any thing.
thanks for the feed back I've considered this, im leaving the battery out over night tonight to see if it'll fix it. I'll post in the morning on what happens, but as always, any more suggestions. please Share theme.
It wouldn't be the BIOS, it could be in need of a "clean" BIOS, but that'll be hard to confirm. Have you checked the PCI card works? Do you have the onboard case speaker plugged in?
well the mobo has build in speaker, when i hook the case speaker up, i get no sound (tested it by taking the ram out and waiting for the beep) *note* it wont even run if the power led isn't pluged up. and the pci works cuzz i hooked up a fx5200 to it that had a fan on it, and it worked (well the fan did)
btw, it'll probably have come from a Packard Bell PC - the one's I've seen have come from old PB PC's anyway. I wonder if you've got the motherboard headers hooked up correctly? I only say that because you mention it won't turn on without the power led plugged in, which seems a little.. odd.
I'm not sure if they are or not, if some one could dig up a manual. the only ones i can find are of other models of this motherboard. +I think its a gateway mobo cause allot of the time when im looking for info on it, I'll see some stuff about it being a msi board from gate way. but it could be a Packard bell my friend got it off ebay for like 3 dolors.
I found the manual, and i found the problem, The cpu isn't supported by the mobo -_- I n00b'd that one up. might be going to 500mph's house tomorrow to get the other board, it just need the bios flashed to it.. that should be fun.
