OK.. If you still subscribe to this thread, or any new ones I think I may have the answer to your problem. The fix that worked for me came around because I was having trouble after a couple of RAM upgrades, a couple of AGP Video upgrades and an upgrade to a AMD AthlonXP 2400+TBred from a 1800+ TBred.A New Antec PS 430w Tru Power. The last one put my PC over the edge and it was still booting down.. Just a power off shutdown...5-6 mins before it would power up again. Finally, after much review of the manual I decided to clear the CMOS Clock according to the manual and reboot the PC to Default BIOS settings...Nothing happened..Opps... forgot to reset the DIP switches to default..Did that and presto I was in the BIOS again.. Switched the CPU to 2000mhz...(1500 was safe mode) After a restart, I then went to the Control panel /System..to see what the CPU clocked in at and I got a solid 2.0 ghz. I haven't tweaked it any further but I may still do that. I believe the BIOS wasn't recognizing all of the things I was trying to do to the MB. Maybe this helps
