I think I have another dead board.
Tha Expert that I repaired the traces on had been working perfectly. I benched a bunch on it since the repair.
I was testing a $15 set of 2x512 Ballistix pc4000 on it....and surprisingly the memory works very well.
But all of a sudden when I was rebooting one time I got no video...nothing to the screen, so sign of signal. I tried the other 16x slot and got the same thing.
I'm thinking my 2nd 4890 is now dead, but I put it back in the Intel and it works perfectly.
The board starts up and goes through the sequence all the way to the last light and that stays on. Retested after overnight CMOS clear and same results.
Any ideas? I admit I haven't even tried to search for an answer yet.
I better try a different cpu, memory, and HD all 1 at a time first.
