On Sunday, I was doing some maintanance on my XP computer. I removed the case on the CPU to use an air duster and vacuum to clean up some of the dust on my fans and cables. When I put everything back together and turned on the machine, it initially would not boot. I removed the cover and made sure every thing was still connected properly and the fan and processor were a little loose. After securing that, I was able to start my computer, though I was asked if I wanted to start in safe mode. After it started again, the new hardware wizard found all of my peripherals. It worked normally after that for the rest of the day.

Yesterday, however, it would not start up at all. I have power to the HD, fans, etc., and there are lights lit up on the motherboard indicating to me that everthing is getting power, but I get nothing. My monitor remains black. I've tested the video card & monitor, both working perfectly. Thoughts?????

I'm working on building my first computer. I have done a bunch of minor upgrades to computers I have bought for quite some time now, but this is the first I have built from scratch. Now, the motherboard that I bought has two IDE-133 and two SATA. What I was wondering is can you use both the SATA drives and the IDE drives at the same time, or is it an either one or the other type of thing.

Just want to make sure if it is a PCI slot not PCI-Express nor AGP slot.
So what graphic card do you recommand for PCI bus?
The only way which make it to support PCI-Express or AGP is change the motherboard?
Thank You
