I made my first system a couple weeks ago using a gigabyte GA-8I848P-G mobo with a 2.66 ghz northwood P4. Today I got a new Prescott 3.0 P4(1 mb l2 cache), and gigabyte's website says that's a supported processor, but now after installing it, if I try to boot up the fans and all will kick on and stay running, but you never hear a drive boot up and the screen never show anything. So i tried to put the old processor in and restart it, but the same thing happened. Anyone have any ideas? Please help.
