Good evening all,
My buddy and I put together a great system:
Asus Motherboard A7V8X-X
AMD Athlon XP 2600+ Barton Core CPU
ATI Radeon 9600 SE Video Card
A Open CD-rom/ DVD-rom (48x16)
Asus CD-RW (52x24x52)
Corsair PC3200 512mb memory w/ platinum heatspreader
Western Digital 80gb 7200rpm 8mb Cache Ultra ATA 133 HD
Sony Floppy Drive
Max Power 400W Dual Fan Power Supply
Blue LED IDE Cables
We finished it last night. We unvieled it in front of some of our friends. Turned the power switch and five seconds later- poof!
The motherboard lit on fire!!!
It happened in the area that says (or said) FAN LED. It was a little chip on the motherboard.
I hope someone can give me some insight into the root of our problem!
Thank you so much for your help!
Rob
