mobo problems?

Exodus · May 16th, 2002, 22:58

recently, my computer when trying to boot up will have many difficulties... the LED lights go crazy and the pc will stop and i'll have to reboot. after a couple tries, it will start up fine, but i assume it will probably get worse... i get a couple different LED combos, so its not just one problem. also, its not a loose part since i don't move anything when i restart. i'm hoping its a simple problem that doesn't require me to buy a new motherboard, but i doubt it. any help would be appreciated.
