AMD Athlon won't start
Most of the times it goes thru the POST, beeps once and it dies after that (screen goes black and light on the monitor turns from solid green to blinking orange, PC fans are still running). Sometimes it gets to Windows screen before it dies, sometimes it doesn't even go thru the POST. I tried with different power supply, replaced AGP video card with PCI, different RAM but problem is the same. I also found on Systemax web site that RAM and video card have to be installed in proper sequence, but that didn't work either. Any help on this would be greatly appreciated.
