[XAllieszer0X]

Ok so i got bored and relized "Hey i got enough extra crappy parts to throw together a computer" so i was making sure i had enough for the mock up i thought about how i didnt have a case for it.. This ment no power button. So of course what do you do when you have a question? Google it. ( if you said ask on here your a nub/newfag) but any way i found out i have to put Jumpers on the power Prongs. So i did this of course and the first few times( moved them each time ) it turned on for a sec and back off then the power supply stayed on but nothing showed up and no fans were spinning. So basically this is where im at now.Also i was told some ppl use knives and screw drivers to do this O_O

ok heres some updates :
Looked the motherboard up found out dell and gateway used it alot.


also found out needs the power supply from the computer i ganked it out of
Which i dont have any more.

so i ganked the jumpers off it and threw it away

Got a new one..well one that my cousin had laying around

Got every thing but the video running atm

Also starting it up with a screw driver works thats how ive been doing it :)

you should buy a case tho
they are about 10 bucks around here for a cheap one
it keeps all the crap out of your parts
and what is wrong with the video?

Well theres no on board video and im pretty sure the video cards i have dont fit right, like they Dont match up they have an extra slot where the video card clot doesnt have it dont know if it makes sense explain it that way but i can get some more pics

[deathlord888]

ya pics might help
but dont try and jam anything in

And thats a 40 gig western digi if you couldnt read it

[deathlord888]

i cant tell if your video card is going to fit or not
but that is by far a big enough power supply
and i have never seen a processor turned like that to the fan

It sounds as if the video card you have may be an agp card, is the extra bit kinda like a hook?

Im sorry if im stating the obvious, but the board doent appear to have any agp connectors only pci.

The gigabyte board pictured should serve you well, but if your gonna use the skelatel setup you will wanna earth everything, trust me on that.
