That damn Shuttle NF2 board. Zap sent me another one to try and as you all know my FX5700 had the fan go out on it, so I ordered in a new GF 6600. So I put the GF 6600 on the Shuttle and it booted first try, I thought Huh? It has booted every day the right way since I changed the Video card, so today I shipped back Zap's board to him. Never even took it out of the box.
9 months that Shuttle of mine doesn't boot right and I change the Video card and it's booting like a champ. It started to boot on first go right before I discovered the fan on the FX 5700 had froze up and was slightly crinkled. Was it the FX 5700 fan causing a power problem from the git go that caused it not to boot right or is it because this GF 6600 has a power plug on it and provides enough juice to get it off the ground? That FX ran fine on the ECS board and this Shuttle didn't like
a 9200SE either.
What's your guess? Just thought I'd let ya all think about it.
