Hi, I have an ABIT BP6 board. This board worked fine with two celerons so far. Now I bought two PPGA-to-FCPGA adapters and two 800MHZ FCPGA PIIIs, but the board refuses to work with more than one processor.

services problem

DremNeonBlack

How do I put every service to its default? I dont know what happened, but I put every service to automatic, just to look more into what the services really do. Any way, now I cant put them back to manual, it goes half the way and then nothing.
