Megatouch EVO Key??
Drakin:
That's the thing...when I hit DEL it hangs up....even if I don't hit any keys. It hangs......
I've got the motherboard separated from the rest of the machine and it still hangs so I know it's gota be the motherboard...right...otherwise I should be able to hit DEL and get into the bios to reset to defaults...but it locks up before I get there.
I'll take a pic of the motherboard and post tonight.
Thanks

it looks good. i'm not seeing anything obviously wrong with it. It appears to have been re-capped. (original caps were green) What is the brand and wattage of the power supply in the machine? i'm wondering if it's still original and starting to flake out.
otherwise...
the other thing you can try is resetting the CMOS and see if it boots up properly. Remove the battery and find the CMOS clear jumper and move it from it's current position to the other pin. (it's near the battery holder)
it should complain about invalid or corrupted CMOS settings and get you to press F1 to enter the setup. if you get in, your golden. if not, you may have a corrupt firmware in the CMOS.
I would search out other avenues first (power supply regulator etc) before suspecting the CMOS but you never know.

The mobo does look fine. Ive seen worse still work fine. I would start looking at the ram. Also, if you have a spare hard drive and some sort of bootable disc like linux or whatever, see if you can get the linux live cd to boot and install on the spare hard drive. That will rule out the mobo completely if it boots and installs.
