Question about Mach Speed MK8-939A (VIPERMK8939A) Motherboard
Maybe a silly question to ask; but did you connect the processor power lead, as unlike some processors this needs a seperate supply.
Posted on Dec 18, 2006
I recently bought an AMD chip and noticed in the processor manual that it has a power connector to the board from the PSU.
Although my chip was not as powerfull as yours, check the documentation that came with the chip and Mobo.
Try booting in safe mode(f8) on boot up, it should boot in VGA mode.
The problem is your AGP port driver is not yet installed more than likely, but it should still boot.
If you get it running try to install motherboard drivers, and reboot.
Does your board have onboard graphics, if so you have to enable your primary graphic controller as your AGP slot.
It may be wise to install everything and get it running if you have got onboard graphics then sort out the graphics card last.

My understanding is that the only additional power to be connected for the cpu is if is an Intel. I was told that the AMD didn't need to be plugged in separately. Is this not true? On the other mobo (ASUS) it was not plugged in and worked fine. It won't hurt anything to plug it in will it?
Hey!!! I stand corrected!! Plugging the power supply into the mobo for the CPU worked (some). I guess it isn't for Intel only!!!! Okay, to test it I removed the DIMM and actually got a repeated single long beep. (I assume it means no memory found) Now my ROMs both open with the button, and the power button actually turns the system off as well. However! I still get NO VIDEO! I have a Radeon 9600Series graphics Accelerator card which should be compatible with the mobo according to the MachSpeed website. I have tried another Radeon 9600 card from the computer I am currently using, but still get NO video. Any suggestions again???? The last one made a difference, I am depending on you!!
