i posted about this problem last week or so. since then i have
replaced quite a bit of hardware and made no progress. before
i was having trouble with the "LI" prompt after swapping out
my Asus P2B + 300MHz with a Asus K7M Athlon 700MHz, same
ram, same case, same drives, cards, etc.
a new stick of "unregistered" 128M pc133 ram later, a new case
with a highend power supply with power regulation, sans ide drives
in turn for a scsi controller and a scsi drive -- i am still unable to
boot. now i can't even get into the BIOS, when i turn it on i get
the BIOS splash screen, then a comforting loud siren of beeps
(looks like i got the speaker wires right) beedoobeedoobeedoo,
and "Keyboard Error, hit F1 to resume"
deja.com revealed all the definitions of the k7m beeps, an annoying
siren was not listed. i've tried switching keyboards with another
(both of these are fine keyboards, i use them daily), same thing.
i've double checked jumpers power connectors, etc.
i'd love some ideas people, this is an old problem and am about
to just pay someone to get this out of my hair so i can get back
to work. beer and pizza to the man who gets me up and running.
cheers,
