I am the creator of the following topics: this one, this one and this one.
All of these topics are about the same Socket 7 motherboard.
I wanted to increase the speed of the cpu (Pentium 1) yesterday, but it would only go as high as 133Mhz. When I tried 150Mhz, the system wouldn't boot any longer. So I removed all the components and reseated them.
After I pressed the power button, the system started producing long cxontinuous beeps. There was no display. From what I read, I gather that this beep code indicates a RAM problem or, possibly, serious malfunction.
I believe that I put the RAM modules backwards into their sockets. According to other information I read, this can fry a motherboard.
Supposing I really did put the RAM modules backwards, do you think I broke my motherboard?
