BIOS is not running on power on
Hi
I've recently upgraded my P5LD2 SE/C motherboard to a P5LD2 Deluxe motherboard. All of the PCI cards, memory, processor (Core 2 Duo, which Asus say is supprted), graphics card (PCI-E 16x) and hard drives are the same.
The problem I have, is that upon switching on there doesn't appear to be a BIOS, as all i get is a blank screen. No system beeps or anything. I've checked that the CLRTC jumper is correctly installed.
Anything else I should try before i send the board back as faulty?
Thanks

Those boards that have such a plug, need it, those that have that plug missing, don't need it.

Guys
I've found out that only version 2 of this board will run core 2 duo. Mine is V1.02.
Why my manual says it does support dual core processors I do not know!
Thanks for your help anyway

I will try your solution when I get home tonight. My last motherboard didn't have the 4 pin extension plugged in, so I didn't plug it for the new board either. How do you know whether to plug the 4 pin bit in or not?
