So, my friend's replacing his motherboard...and I've been helping him with it, so that I can get some kind of handle on the process, since I've never done it before---install a new one into a new computer yes, but not install a new one into an old computer.
I'm competent when it comes to physically installing it, just so it's clear
But, I don't really know much about the software/operation side of it. One of my friends claims you just install the motherboard and fire up the computer...gotta say, that's quite wrong, at least in this case, where the computer would not budge at all from the startup RAM-checking screen.
So, what's the next step, and what should I be doing? Anybody know anything about 'em? I'll take whatever you're willing to give!
