ok well luck is finally on my side, because i actually have stuff to Make that little speaker since all it is is a power and grounding wire, i have some stuff from old electronics kits that i can salvage from.

i suppose i'll make that first, and then try, then if thats a no-go i'll try resetting CMOS and try again.

I know for sure it wasn't touching anything unwanted because i set the MB on it's box on my glass-top desk along with the power supply and 1 HDD. Tried it with and without the HDD but neither worked.

Time to dig out some old electronic shiz

Edit: ok so i'm going to go with.... the stuff i used was so old that it didnt work and i'm going to spend a couple bucks at radioshack...

totally spaced out on calling tech support and had to work until the AM so. anyone have any suggestions as to the power supply? should i slide it over From 115v to 230v? i don't want to over juice it and totally destroy anything so i'm waiting for a couple to give me a go-ahead.

If the outlet you're plugging the power supply into is a 115v outlet, then keep it @ 115v. If your outlet is 230v, then set it to 230v. Basically, if you're in the US and are using in a home, it'll be 115v, so don't switch it to 230v.

new RAM solved the problem. had to go with the only stick of Kingston at walmart at 1 in the morning, but it booted up right away. I only had a strike of fear when the monitor said no signal, but i turned it off and back on and it worked. Then the fear was replaced by joy... which was quickly replaced by fear again as the monitor flashed to no signal, then back up with the windows logo.

That fear has now turned into unknowing anger and or confusion.
in short hand:
"A problem detected and windows shut down. If first time seen Stop Error Screen reboot, if appears again check for adequate disk space, driver identified in message then disable or check for updates. Change video adapters and check for BIOS Updates. Disable BIOS memory caching or shadowing. Reboot in safemode to remove/disable anything needed."
Edit: forgot this "Stop: 0x0000007E (0xC0000005, 0xF7650750, 0xF796B430, 0xF796B12C)

i'm about to reboot it and edit with an update

Got it booted in safe mode. going to dump my HDD onto an external device then reinstall windows or whatever i have to do from there. Thanks for the help
