The old VP6, need a little help

smokinkane · 08-02-2006, 12:48 PM

Ok, so I traded for what is suppose to be a working VP6, and it did for about 3 hours. I installed 2 p3 1ghz processors 768mb of ram and all was good. Now it will only boot with 1 processor installed, doesn't matter which processor I use or which socket on the board. So I got to looking at the caps, all are nichicon (so they have been replaced at one time or another) except the 4 behind the pararell port. They are still black jacksons, so do you think my booting issue could be from the jacksons, or maybe the nichicon's are bad (they don't show any signs of it). Thanks ahead of time.
