Motherboard problems
Hi, I am new to this webiste so bare with me.
I previously bought a new motherboard and processor for my computer that I am using now. I am running my computer on a Intel Legend-V Pentium 2 processor with Windows XP Professional on it. I got the computer from a college so I don't have the Windows CD for it, if I were to need it to repair anything. Does anybody know where I can get the information to do this?
I went out and bought a ASUS MEB-VM Motherboard with Celeron processor.
However, I am having trouble getting the new motherboard to work. I install it and it doesn't work, the OS doesn't boot up. I then take it out and put the old motherboard back in it and it works fine.
When I turn on the computer boot up with the new motherboard and processor in it everything starts fine, but it never gets to the windows loading screen it stops right after you hear the post sound that it makes. The screen just goes blank with a little white blinking cursor in the upper left hand corner.
I had read some articles about this. They had said that I should make a Windows XP boot up disk. I am confused on how to do this though.
lLike I said previously, I am using Windows XP Professional, I am not sure if it is the way that Microsoft designed the program to make you re-install the OS everytime you install new hardware or something is the reason why it won't work.
I would really love to get this new motherboard and processor to work.
Thanks for your help,
Bradley
