    hi, I have a big problem and a long stroy for that. Already now i appreciate the guys reading this post and trying to help.
    First, I had a AMD Epox 8RDA+ mobo. The problem started with the red voltage values at the startup of the computer: sometimes voltage values(i don't remember which yet) are colored in red computer wouldn't start. When there were no red's everthing were working fine. And some days it happened that when i powered the computer there was only a black screen . I tested all the hardware an finally found it was the mobo. I took it to a repairshop and they told me the problem is the capasitors near the cpu: they swelled and needed to be replaced. But after the replacement the repairman told me the chip of mobo was damaged and can only work with 1100 Hz Freq., but my cpu is 1700XP,so it
    didnt work with me. With that i bought a new mobo FoxConn 600A01 and plugged my HDD without having formatted into the mobo. I used the computer a while(about 1-2 days), and then the computer started to restart itself anytime(while playing games, surfing, or just doing nothin). After the restart it was saying "The system has recovered from a serious error" and giving this error details:

    BCCode: 1000007e
    BCP1: C0000005
    BCP2: F7D62E1D
    BCP3: F49F0A44
    BCP4: F49F0740
    Os.ver: 5_1_2600
    S_P: 2_0
    Product: 256_1

    I turned the automatic restart off but it didn't work. After a while screen started to go off when windowsXP started and then restart itself. And now:
    the screen turnes into black while loading XPlogo on the blcak screen, sometimes 1-2 min after the logon.

    i was able to copy 2 error codes fragmentarily in the event viewer:

    1.) SSPD Dis. Service entered the running state
    2.) error code 100000ea
    par?1 : 815b8638
    par?2 : 81a57970
    par?3 : f9e65cb4
    par?4 : 00001

    Sorry i forgot what was writn in par?x field and so put a question mark there.

    I should add one of the self_restarts i heard beeps but i dont remember how their codes were.

    I fear that mobo went down again :( but please dont tell me this. By the way here are my hardware:
    • AMD1700XP
    • 160GB HDD
    • 2 optic driver
    • geforce mx440 display adapter
    • 2 sticks of ram:1) 256MBddr400 2)256MBddr333
    • 300Watt Frisby Power Supply

    I'm waitng your help :confused: thnx again

    Hi, welcome to the BBS.

    Please download Everest in my signature and list what it says under Motherboard -> CPU -> CPU Type.

    I have the same CPU it does not actually run at a frequency of 1700, it's standard settings are 1473 Mhz. 1700 is a comparison to the previous models.

    Everest also has other things that can be checked, like voltage and temperature readouts.

    Matt

    ulasu - Welcome to the Board :)
    I see you are running XP
    You cannot simply change the mobo and expect the original install of XP to run prpoerly - if at all :) - the hardware, which XP monitors and records has changed.

    You need to make a Repair install of XP.....

    thnx for replying pete,
    sorry Iı forgot to mention that after i got error messages and restarts i tried to install a fresh copy of XP. But this time i got a weird error such as when i insert the XP disk and restart the computer, in a grey screen in front of the black screen it was saying that a file something like xxx.inf in E:\i386... is missing, so i couldnt succeed to install. after a while somehow i could install XP well, and the last problems above are with my new windowsXP.

    yes i have installed all the drivers. I suspect this problem is about hardware. because the time of restarting was longer at first, but now as soon as windows starts, in 1-2 minutes it freezes. it is black sceen, and keyboard does not work as well.

    Presumably you installed the CPU from the original board into the new board? - did you apply thermal paste between the heat sink and the CPU?

    yes thermal paste is fine. But i've read somewhere that sometimes some part of the motherboard can touch the case and this can can cause a short circuit. is this possible?
