I am stumped! I have been trying to get my old A4000 up and going. I bought another MB from Ebay (second one now) and all I get is a Red Screen immediately when it turns on. I don't remember but I thought there was a second or two delay when it powers on before the system check begins. I know Red means ROM problem, but the red screen comes on right when the power button is pushed, absolutely no delay. Also I have swapped them with 3.1 and 3.0 ROMs and still same thing. I am not sure but could the PSU be a problem? It is actually the only thing I don't have a spare of and the only common factor ... actually not true the CPU board is also the original, but I get the red screen when it isn't even connected. Ant suggestions would be great as I am tired of spending money on MBs and still not have a working A4000
You putting in the ROMs the right way? Odd that they both don't work, would think it was a bad ROM.
