I successfully built a new computer, and it works fine and does everything I want it to do correctly. Only problem i've noticed it when I turn on my computer (I shut it down every night), I have no internet connection probably because my network card driver isn't listed on device manager (my...

I have a Gigabyte 45P Motherboard and Samsung 750gb SATA Harddrive Links: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813128346 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16822152100 In the BIOS my it recognizes the harddrive, when I try to install Vista Home Premium...

In the BIOS it does seem to recognize the harddrive being there EDIT: Wait could this be the problem? I originally had windows vista 32 bit and requested microsoft to send me 64 bit, but I never installed 32 bit so my computer has no OS, does 32 bit need to be installed before 64 bit can be...

It is only 1 SATA harddrive, while installing vista it tries to scan for a driver but doesn't find any... Anyone know what to do?

I built a new computer from scratch, trying to install vista home premium 64 bit. But am stuck at the point where I need to install HD drivers, or motherboard drivers for SATA, i'm not really sure what drivers I need or how to get them on. Mobo -...

Hi, I was just wondering if it is ok that the end of my network card (in the first PCE-E slot), is touching I think the heatpipe going through my motherboard. If it is wondering if I should put something inbetween like rubber or paper or something. The heatpipe looks like it is made of copper.

I've got everything in the case now, every piece I need is installed except sound card and network cards (because i'm getting new ones). The motherboard gets power and when I turn it on all 6 of the fans spin including the video card fan leds all work but then after a few seconds it turns off...

Oh I spent like 7 hours yesterday and more today reading all the manuals and trying to get it all just right, some things just ended up slipping by. Gotta make mistakes to get better I suppose, at least they weren't as dire of mistakes as I thought. =)

Wow! Thanks so much man, until now I was feeling miserable (of course i'm not done yet), I was prepared to wait weeks sending back parts and waiting for new parts and accept that I lost tons of money. Thanks again.

Ahha! I did not see that the video card needed that plug, that got it working and I have display, no beeping. So now just need a PSU that has the wattage for everything?

I pressed the power button and there were some sounds and the CPU fan started working then it stopped and started every few seconds, and when I put the video card in there was loud beeping. Normal?

The LEDs did turn on! Does this mean I only need a need a new power supply?

Yes I plugged the 6 pin one in, but I still have no idea if power ever even went to my motherboard. At the moment I don't have a PSU that I can test with.

Is that one of the 3 pin slot connector that goes above the Fpanel? Or are you talking about something else, if so I think so but I can't be sure, if it was would that have saved my motherboard from ever getting fried?
