I got my computer to boot up on Monday. It turns out the power switch cable became dislodged when I replaced the IDE cable. So whenever I pressed in the power switch the signal did not reach the motherboard. Boy do I feel stupid. I only figured this out after ordering a bare bones system and a back up computer which I didn’t really need.
Today I got a CMOS battery for my old computer but I will be replacing it with a better one I bought on eBay. I installed the hardware and software for my PreSonus Firebox and tested it. It works and sounds a lot better than a PC microphone although I was unable to get the audio loud enough.
