bonestonne Posted September 23, 2007 Share Posted September 23, 2007 my PII Xeon server would do that a lot because it would overheat..i'd have to wait for it to cool off before i could even try to do anything with it. when i first got the PIII Xeons for it it was unstable, but it worked itself out i guess as its solid now.i'm not entirely sure what to tell you though, its possible the board is dead, but have you tired anything else like clearing the CMOS or anything like that?

puntoMX Posted September 23, 2007 Share Posted September 23, 2007 My Post count reached 686 yay! So in rememberance of the Pentium II i wrote some stuff.Get your self a socket 775 now, so you can write something on it when your post count is 775 .I think It’s better to find your self a second computer like that and make from 2 one, or just upgrade, there are still upgrades that will work with W98SE...
