I have a MSI 6330 (K7T Turbo) motherboard. Lately the board has been hanging in all my OS (Multi Boot Machine-XP Pro, ME, 98SE, Linux 8.0, Win 3.1). Well now tonight, it dumped itself and I cannot get it to boot. Sometimes it does perform a POST, other times it won't boot at all (DLED's show all Red and hang), or gets stuck in the middle of the POST.
If you do get it to do a POST, the BIOS messages might go through fine and hang, or you get garbled characteds (Kinda like a bad modem connection).
I've swapped CPU and RAM with same results. Motherboard gone bye-bye.
Please advise.

Try another power supply. If that also don't work it really seems to be the board!
But with all the different things happening at booting I really think you may have a power problem.
If the problem is on the board you should get the same results instead !!!

Didn't think to check the power supply. Unfortunately, I do have a spare 400watt and the board still will not boot or complete a POST.
Thanks anyway.....Time for an RMA!!!
