 » Frequently Asked Technical Support Questions

Q: I hear no sound while playing games or listening to music:
A:
The first step to try is to check if you are plugging the speaker set into the correct output device. If you have a dedicated sound card such as you will need to plug your speakers into the sound card itself, not the motherboard output jacks. Make sure you are plugging the speakers into the correct color port, usually this port is green or blue. If you are using a multi-channel speaker system, try using headphones or a two piece speaker set.

Q: I am having start up, stability, or performance issues:
A:
All of our systems are extensively tested in our facility prior to shipment, a defective component is very unlikely. However, when you put shipping into the equation (bumps, drops, vibrations, and shocks), a crucial component might have dislodged loose inside. Reseat all memory, video card, sound card, PCI card drives and verify the "24-Pin" motherboard power cable and "4-Pin" CPU power cable are secured mounted to the motherboard. You should also try to isolate a bad component, such as a stick of memory, PCI card, or video card and see if that resolves the issue.

Q: Windows is failing to start up, or, I receive a "Media Disconnected" or "Boot-up Failure" message.
A:
Check data and power cable connections going to the hard drive(s). Follow the data cable from the hard drive(s) to the motherboard as well and reseat those connections.
