Downloaded a version somewhere and it works perfectly without doing anything fancy. Maybe you are missing some files or something. Using official DOSBox 0.74

I have had my share of weird issues with nVidia lately. I miss the times of the TNT2 card. But as everyone has said so far, both manufacturers have their share of issues. Personally, I prefer AMD/ATI.

Must be "collectors value". I had one Trident 8900CL VGA card a long time ago. a very sub par card.

My friend has already bought a new PC. I will ask her to keep the old hardware for myself. She doesn't need it. I will install her the Operating System for free though. 😎

RogueTrip2012: Yes I tried with Videocard off, but it made no difference. I don't have any spare components to test. Batracio: Nice find, but as I said before, I think it's a good time for getting new hardware.

I know. I live in Spain. Spain is mostly pricey about everything. I guess that's a common tactic for forcing people into getting the latest hardware. In case I have some spare time tomorrow, I will check the heatsink more thoroughly just in case the system may resurrect but I highly doubt it. Most …

I can do a few tests more (check the heatsink), but we are already looking for a new setup. I am being asked for 70 € for a socket 478 board. I think it's not worth it. A new system costs about 250-300 €.

The screwdriver trick worked. Heh, that was fun. But the behaviour is just the same. The board powers up and shuts down after 5-10 seconds. I have tried everything everyone so kindly suggested so I am assuming the PSU destroyed something on the mainboard when it dies, so now I must try to get a …

Thanks. I will check manual on what pins are. This is what I tried so far: + Clear CMOS by using the pins stated on the manual. + Remove RAM and cleaned its contacts. + Remove everything else attached to mainboard. + Power it up -> Result -> same behaviour. It powered down after 10 seconds or so. …

Thank you very much for the replies. I have downloaded the PDF manual where it shows the process of resetting bios using a jumper. I will try today all suggestions you have made. I have a further inquiry: If I take the board out of the case and plug just the psu (without those tiny power, hd leds, …
