Problem with MotherBoard A7N8X-VM/400 and Sempron 2800+

[Olivier Cochard]

Hello All!
I've juste bougt a A7N8X-VM/400 and a Sempron 2800+ but I can't boot my
system: I have only a black screen (but no beep as when there is a RAM
problem).

I try another CPU (an Athlon XP 1800+) and it's run perfectly.
Then I upgrade the BIOS to the latest bios (version 1003 as recommended
on the ASUS web site).
But the Sempron 2800+ still don't work!

Is somebody have this problem ?

Thanks,

Olivier

I had this same problem with a Sempron 2400+ processor. After days of
working on it I just quite... Tried everything (other mobo, bios, p/supply,
an other processor) to fix it but nothing helps. I swaped the mainboard for
the A7V400-MX and that runs really smooth with no problem at all.

I read from the Asus website that one needs to upgrade the BIOS in order to
use a Semptron 2800+.

I found the problem: It was the power supply of my Box (Antec Minuet)
which is not enought powerfull.....
