    Hi, i have an Asus A7A266-E with an Athlon 1700xp.
    When i switch the PC on the hard-drive LED and Power LED light up as does
    the LED on the CD-Rom drive.
    The floppy fails to 'light-up" and the monitor (powered separately from the
    PC) does not come on..it remains in standby mode.
    Has anyone any ideas on this problem?
    Help much appreciated.
    Regards,
    Pete Wood

    I had a similar problem and it was related to my graphics card. The system
    would only do it with one particular card, and I think it was related to the
    fact that the card was putting too much of a load on my power supply. How
    big is your power supply?

    That would explain the problem with the floppy drive light but not the
    monitor issue ...
