just got some new parts in my old computer, and now it wont start up. or... it starts up but shuts itself down afterwards.

got this mainboard

http://www.abit.com.tw/page/no/motherbo ... NFO=Manual

gforce4 tii4200

1024 ddr (pc3200)

2ghz proccessor

I get the errorcode "9F" Doesn't even show in the manual.

My cabinet is 6 years old tho, and Im thinking it might have something to do with the old power supply.

Any suggestions ?

Power supply Error, RAM or CPU. Maybe a bios update will help.

Wouldn`t suprise me if it`s the PSU.

Try de-tatching (?) a hard drive or something you don`t need, because I bet you need more watt on your PSU.

If you have nothing to de-tatch, then borrow a more powerfull PSU from someone.

Typical problem for shutting down after startup are (to my experience) either the power supply or the fans. Try a diffrent supply and check the fans if cleaning is needed/something's wrong or broken.
