**diosagain** · 04-19-2007, 08:51 PM

I am having the same problems except now I brougt the motherboard back into bench and its not booting at all. The fans turn on and the board turns on but their is no vga feed and its not turning on i guess. I really don't know what to do.

I have got a strange problem at startup also.

My configuration consist of a Jetway J7F2WE1G5D motherboard, a M2-ATX powersupply and a SATA hard disk.

When starting up the computer it doesn´t find the harddisc, if reset the motherboard with the reset switch the motherboard finds the disc and Windows starts up as normally...If I restart Windows it also finds the disc. Has this something to do with the earlier mentioned fix? Can anyone help me with this? BTW I have got the latest bios installed, v.9.0 at the moment.

This sounds like the EXACT same problem I am having with my M2-ATX and a Jetway 1.5ghz mobo. It never wants to startup on cold mornings.

Who can I contact to have this fixed?

I bought mine on ebay so...

Is there a DIY kind of fix for this??

So this means I'm not getting the M2. Any suggestions for another powersupply? I'd like to power a touchscreen with it too. How are the pico PSU's?

You must have the exact same setup as I. I too would like a DIY guide or something. I figure I have until December to work on this when the weather starts dipping below 0C. On those days I have to restart it after the 1st boot try, i guess after it warms a little???

I have now gotten my motherboard updated for the low bootup temperature problem. Still I had the problem with the BIOS not finding the harddrive without pushing the reset button. I changed the harddrive to another (both SATA) and it started working

Finally!! Hopefully I don´t stumble into anymore problems like this...

So how did you do it? Please share!!

I sent it back to Jetway in Netherlands (I live in Finland). It took one week from I sent it to when I got it back from them. Just make support request to your closest Jetway and that´s it

I know the thread is kind of dated, but I just received my J7F21G5D mobo and I'm having problems booting. I installed in car for initial boot, and got no post beeps/no video. Powered off/back on and got one long beep. Powered off/on got video, then rebooted - no video again. Now when I try booting, I either get "long beep looping continuously" (No DRAM detected), or I get no beeps at all.

My questions:
1. How do you tell if the problem identified in this thread may be causing my problem? I just received my mobo yesterday from MP3Car store.
2. I'm currently TDY (military), and don't have any extra RAM/power supplies, etc. Does this sound like a RAM problem, or a mobo problem to you guys?

Thanks for any help you can give.
