it will go in to cmos or start the win xp setup up but just shuts down after about a minute. i checked the temp it is about 73 f.no noise from the fans or the m/b. i have several fans all running normal. i replaced the power supply with a 450w with two fans. i put heatsink compound on the fan base.

i plugged in the heatsink/fan and it spins at boot. i have not overclocked,

I have a new ecs extreme motherboard with an apthlon 939 3000+ processor, with 512mb ram a new power supply and new hardrrive. I have a 128m AGP video card from a good machine. All of the itemes I am using have either come from a running system or have been tested in a working computer. My computer will turn on and I can get to cmos setup or to boot from cd, however, after about 1-2 minutes the system just shuts down.
