I just bought a new motherboard,vid card,1gig of DDR, Soundcard and powersupply. I installed everything and was going smooth till about 12 hours later. I was almost finished installing a patch to a game and the computer just decided to reset. Then I received an error about ntokernal missing. So I insterted the 2000 cd to repair the missing file and rebooted. Next thing i get after the bios load is a blinking cursor and nothing else. Then i rebooted and went to go into the bios and it locked up there. Now nothing loads....not even a power good beep....nada.
Its the Gigabyte Pentiem4 Titan Series motherboard GA-8IK1100.
