cak46 Posted June 16, 2005 CID Share Posted June 16, 2005 Power the mobo all the way down by unplugging the power cord, then hold the power button for 10 seconds, plug it back in and try the boot again. Also, does your POST screen come up? Could be the nic might be bad if your system won't even POST. If it POSTS but then locks, reboot and go into your cmos setup then just exit, saving changes and try to boot again. Could try a different PCI slot with the d-link nic as well.

tennesseeme Posted June 26, 2005 CID Share Posted June 26, 2005 d-link puts gnomes in their NIC's, and those few gnomes sole purpose in life, is to chew thru that chip, looks like your gnomes met their Nirvana. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
