HELP!!! Need Input!. i have a soyo sy-7vca-e motherboard.the bios #reads as follows 7vca-e 2aa2 upon researching the soyo website this is the latest bios update for this board when i boot up the board it just gets to the mem test screen then locks up. the cpu is a celeron 700 . all that is on the board is the video card and cpu.. what could the problem be? i have cleared the cmos , changed the m/b battery still the same things also tried swapping the cpu with a celeron 933 and when i did that i got nothing..also swapped the video card from a pci to agp and back (ihave tried four different videocards} also tried swapping the powersupply. manual cpu settings dont work on this board as it is auto cpu detect any input is greatly needed. Thanx

Are the memory sticks you've tried single sided, or are there chips on both sides of the sticks. Some boards are very picky with high-density memory.
