    shuttle sn45g broke?

    hi, i've had my shuttle sn45g since friday, when i turned it on it wouln't boot upagain, it would just turn on with the fan at fullspeed and stay like that, the blue light would go out after a couple of secs and the hd light would come on the go off just after that.
    so i took all the componants out and tried them in my other pc and they all work fine exept the ram, so i put it all back together with new ram in and did the clear cmos but still got the same thing. so i took the battery out and put the pins to clear cmos and left it overnight(12-14hours) just tried it again now and still nothing, so does anyone know whats the problem?

    thanks

    Sounds like the bios, have you tried soft resetting it by holding the insert key and turning it on?

    hmm, that has worked for me in the past when i had a similar problem, you may have to get in touch with where you bought it and organise an rma unless you know someone that can hotswap and flash the bios for you.

    just read the manual and it said hold insert until it posts(thats when it bleeps right?) and the then press del to get into the bios but that still didn't work.
    so i took the ram out to try it in my pc again and the 512mb stick of geil didn't work so could that has caused it to brake? should i try the clear cmos again now?

    if the ram isn't working in your other system then try to soft reset and clear the cmos again with only the working stick in there.
