I also just realised that I ended up putting the mobo speaker in my siss computer and so the buzzing I was hearing isnt the bios ><
< = noob
I should have stuck with the same mobo to redue the pain of moving, but ended up going for
http://www.ebuyer.com/product/132275 Im hoping that I can ge vista to work. XP isnt too much of an issue as that was just a stop gap for when something didnt work in vista, namely one piece of software I dont need, though would have been good for revision. So long as I can access the documents on the vista partition, and get them across, Ill be able to breathe a sigh of relief and feel a little easier with the concept of reinstalling xp :S
Guess Ill be calling MS too to say how much of a noob I am, killing my mobo, can they please let me use my computer again now...
