Hi all,
I just rebuilt my PC around a new motherboard, a Foxconn WinFast NF4SK8AA-8EKRS (s939, NForce4 SLI) and I think the board may be goosed. When I power it up everything seems to light up or spin up OK. It gets to the WinFast logo screen but it freezes there and won't respond to the keys to go into the BIOS screen or the boot menu. After a few seconds like that the CPU fan stops and it's LEDs go out. Nothing happens after that.
All the other components are known to work as they all just came out of my previous board last night, the only exception is the graphics card, it arrived damaged so i put an old Matrox thing in for now. I did a CMOS clear after the first couple of times I tried to start the newly built machine but that didn't help. I've tried setting the PSU to single and dual rail setting, tried disconnecting the strange molex power connector on the board (no idea what it's for, got a 24pin and a 4pin on it already) and have tried using a PS/2 keyboard and mouse instead, all to no avail.
Any ideas what to try next, short of RMA'ing the board?
Cheers
