Im guesting its one of the new parts that i got, as i had the celeron 1.6 cpu, 512mb ram and modo from before and together, were working fine.
Another thing, after taking out the vga card and the 2gb ram, now when i start the pc, it shows me the, which mode do i want the pc to start in, 'normall or safe mode'. but as soon as i click normal mode the pc turns off again.
Hi I think the PC started working ok at this point but due to the differnet hardware being in the PC it would require the windows to be repair installed which is normal in this case

It wasn't the ram after all, i just change the thermal paste and now the pc starts up fine but how do i tweak the bios so i get the right voltage for the cpu.+ what would be the best voltage for a P4 cpu?

Q. when you guys talk about mix/match the ram are you, talking about the the size of the ram or the speed?
