I replaced a MB8500TTD motherboard with a TX PRO II - Intergrated sound and
video.
The system is 200mhz Pentium with MMX ; AMI PLUG and PLAY BIOS Ver.1.0A ; a
Champion 3200-2AF hard drive. This is the first MB I have replaced so there
is some room for oversight on my part but everything went well except:

1.) The computer won't boot if I just turn it on; it will boot if I go into
the BIOS to  check the setting and hit "enter" . I did run auto-detect, it
detected the hard drive, the settings are there but it won't boot when I turn
on the power or hit "restart" from windows.

2.) If I connect the CD-ROM the computer freezes after it "recognizes" the
CD. If I do not connect the CD the computer will boot-refer to the above.

Outside of installing the occassional modem this is all pretty knew to me. My
background knowledge comes only from reading. So far, I find it challenging
and fun.
I appreaciate any help.

Thanks
Bill Peplinski
